CVE-2000-1173: Microsys CyberPatrol uses weak encryption (trivial encoding) for credit card numbers and uses no encryption...

Microsys CyberPatrol uses weak encryption (trivial encoding) for credit card numbers and uses no encryption for the remainder of the information during registration, which could allow attackers to sniff network traffic and obtain this sensitive information.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Microsys CyberPatrol, a late-1990s content filter, sent registration data over the network with only trivial encoding on credit card numbers and no encryption on the rest. Anyone able to observe that traffic could capture cardholder and personal details. This is a legacy issue in a discontinued product, so the business risk today is limited to systems still running that old software. Very limited in modern environments. The affected product is a legacy consumer content filter from 2000; enterprise fleets are highly unlikely to still register or transmit data through it. Exposure would only exist on preserved legacy hosts. Low priority. This is a 2000-era information disclosure flaw in a discontinued consumer product with no KEV listing. Treat as legacy hygiene: verify the software is not present in the estate rather than initiating an incident response workstream. Mitigation focus: Retire any remaining CyberPatrol installations and remove them from managed endpoints.; Do not submit payment or registration data through legacy clients lacking TLS.; Consult current vendor or successor guidance before reusing any archived CyberPatrol installer..
