Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to the failure to protect the feature negotiation of NTLMSSP from a downgrade. A remote unauthenticated attacker can bypass security restrictions by using man-in-the-middle techniques to clear NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE_SIGN and NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE_SEAL flags and perform downgrade attacks.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in security restrictions bypass.
