CVE-2025-34196Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Certificate impersonation via shipped CA private key

Published Sep 29, 2025 · Updated Sep 29, 2025

Hard-coded credentials in Vasion Print Virtual Appliance Host before 25.1.102 and Application before 25.1.1413 allow attackers to impersonate its CA. The Windows client writes the CA certificate and matching private key into clientsettings.dat and defaults.ini instead of keeping the signing key secret. Access to either shipped file enables certificate signing and interception of TLS communications trusted by affected clients.
