When master password is used and password dialog entry is cancelled, terminals still opens! #5
Comments
Fixed in 4.0.1 |
Was this a security breach? Were stored passwords accessible in prior versions? |
No, it was introduced in 4.0 and fixed in 4.0.1 |
Hmm. I didn't check that. I wrote that is a security breach because one could start remote sessions (starting the program itself) without typing the master password - that is going around password-based security. |
OK, thanks for responding. But to be clear: if you canceled out of the dialog, you'd have access to the app, but if you tried to use a host that had a saved password, it wouldn't work? |
I think I worked, but to be sure of it I have to install the first version and try it. Do you need confirmation of this?

My real question is whether it was - or still is - possible to get an unencrypted password without knowing the master password. I expect @jirkapok would have to answer, to be sure. (I've done a little code digging, and it looks like the passwords are encrypted with the master password, but I'm not certain.) |
Does this mean a hacker could use a 4.0.0 version to access saved credentials, read passwords that are now decrypted in memory, or connect using saved credentials, if they had the db from a terminals install? |
Let me check that in a virtual machine and get back to you.

I didn’t succeed in finding the 4.0.0 version on github.
Can someone provide the link to the msi/exe?
There are no archived versions there? Maybe on codeplex…

I guess you wer right about not able to decrypt the passwords from the local file store (am I designating things right?).
I tried the 4.0.0 bytes with my Data.
You could not see the existing passwords, as far as the GUI goes.
See for yourself the attachments, please.

This is probably serious security breach - if master password dialog entry is cancelled, terminals app is still opened.
This should not happen.
Also, in this case the startup RDP connections are opened without explicit setting/confirmation/control with the lowest possible display resolution.
