A vulnerability was discovered in Siemens SiPass integrated (All versions before V2.70) that could allow an attacker with local access to the SiPass integrated server or SiPass integrated client to potentially obtain credentials from the systems.
The storage of passwords in a recoverable format makes them subject to password reuse attacks by malicious users. In fact, it should be noted that recoverable encrypted passwords provide no significant benefit over plaintext passwords since they are subject not only to reuse by malicious attackers but also by malicious insiders. If a system administrator can recover a password directly, or use a brute force search on the available information, the administrator can use the password on other accounts.
