Administrator credential disclosure via recoverable password storage
Published Feb 13, 2023 · Updated Mar 21, 2025
Recoverable password storage in Driver Distributor 2.2.3.1 and earlier allows local users to decrypt stored administrator credentials. The configuration file stores the administrator password with reversible encryption, so possession of that file exposes the plaintext credential. An attacker must first obtain the configuration file; published materials do not identify its path, access controls, or cryptographic design.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
