Procom NetFORCE 800 4.02 M10 Build 20 and possibly other versions sends the NIS password map (passwd.nis) as a file attachment in diagnostic e-mail messages, which allows remote attackers to obtain the cleartext NIS password hashes.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old information-disclosure issue in Procom NetFORCE 800. Diagnostic e-mails can include the NIS password map, exposing password hashes to anyone who receives or accesses those messages. Business risk depends on whether affected appliances still exist and whether diagnostic e-mail archives contain the attachment. Likely limited to environments still operating Procom NetFORCE 800 appliances with diagnostic e-mail enabled. Exposure also includes historical diagnostic mailboxes, ticketing systems, and archives that may retain passwd.nis attachments. Treat as a targeted legacy exposure review. Prioritize if Procom NetFORCE 800 devices remain in service or if NIS credentials are still used. The main risk is credential compromise from retained diagnostic e-mails, not confirmed active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Check vendor or maintainer guidance for firmware fixes or replacement advice.; Disable diagnostic e-mail attachments if supported by the product.; Restrict diagnostic e-mail recipients to trusted administrative mailboxes only..
