CVE-2007-5460

Status Candidate

Overview

Microsoft ActiveSync 4.1, as used in Windows Mobile 5.0, uses weak encryption (XOR obfuscation with a fixed key) when sending the user's PIN/Password over the USB connection from the host to the device, which might make it easier for attackers to decode a PIN/Password obtained by (1) sniffing or (2) spoofing the docking process.

Symantec Vulnerability Research SYMSA-2007-010 - A vulnerability has been discovered in the mechanism that Microsoft ActiveSync 4.x uses to obfuscate the password when it's sent over the USB network interface between the device and the host machine. This enables malicious software on the host to either impersonate a device in order to obtain the current password or, if in a position to sniff network traffic, obtain the password for trivial decoding.
