The web console in Symantec Altiris Notification Server 6.0.x before 6.0 SP3 R12 uses a hardcoded key that can decrypt SQL Server credentials and certain discovery credentials, and stores this key on the Notification Server machine, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information and possibly execute arbitrary code by decrypting and using these credentials.
