Symantec Advanced Secure Gateway (ASG) 6.6 prior to 6.6.5.13, ASG 6.7 prior to 6.7.3.1, ProxySG 6.5 prior to 6.5.10.6, ProxySG 6.6 prior to 6.6.5.13, and ProxySG 6.7 prior to 6.7.3.1 are susceptible to an information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker with local access to the client host of an authenticated administrator user can, under certain circumstances, obtain sensitive authentication credential information.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue could expose administrator authentication credentials for Symantec ASG or ProxySG when an attacker has local access to an authenticated administrator's client computer. It is not described as a remote appliance takeover, but stolen admin credentials could materially weaken gateway security. Exposure is most likely where affected ASG or ProxySG versions are still managed from administrator workstations that may be locally accessed, shared, or compromised. Internet-facing attacker exposure is not supported by the provided sources. Treat as a targeted credential-exposure risk for legacy secure gateway management. Prioritize remediation where these appliances protect sensitive traffic or where administrator workstations have elevated exposure. Mitigation focus: Upgrade ASG 6.6 to 6.6.5.13 or later.; Upgrade ASG 6.7 to 6.7.3.1 or later.; Upgrade ProxySG to the applicable fixed release or later..
