Description
Kofax Capture, now referred to as Tungsten Capture, version 6.0.0.0 (other versions may be affected) exposes a deprecated .NET Remoting HTTP channel on port 2424 via the Ascent Capture Service that is accessible without authentication and uses a default, publicly known endpoint identifier. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit .NET Remoting object unmarshalling techniques to instantiate a remote System.Net.WebClient object and read arbitrary files from the server filesystem, write attacker-controlled files to the server, or coerce NTLMv2 authentication to an attacker-controlled host, enabling sensitive credential disclosure, denial of service, remote code execution, or lateral movement depending on service account privileges and network environment.
AI Analysis
Unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit .NET Remoting object unmarshalling techniques to read arbitrary files, write attacker-controlled files, or coerce NTLMv2 authentication.
