Security readout for executives and security teams
This CVE concerns legacy Symantec Ghost deployments that installed SQLAnywhere with a default administrator login and password. A local user on an affected system could abuse that default access to gain privileges or alter Ghost tasks. Exposure is most likely on legacy systems still running Symantec Ghost 8.0, 8.2, or Ghost Solutions Suite 1.0 with the bundled SQLAnywhere installation. Treat this as a legacy-access control risk. Prioritize environments where Ghost systems manage imaging or deployment tasks and where non-admin local users can access affected hosts. Mitigation focus: Inventory hosts running Symantec Ghost 8.0, 8.2, or SGSS 1.0.; Review Symantec’s advisory for vendor-supported remediation guidance.; Remove or change default SQLAnywhere administrator credentials where vendor-supported..
