hi hackers, I am doing a VA/PT for one our client and found one of the servers is using Ultra VNC. The ports (5800 & 5900) are open to Internet. Is it secure against Man in the middle attack? Do I need to report this as a CRITICAL/HIGH security issue.. Thanks & Rgds. P.T.
Personally, I would rate it as a critical issue. There are a number of much more secure solutions to remote server administration rather than ultra-vnc. I have not reviewed the actual SSL plugin, but that can always be checked for existing vulnerabilities depending on the version of OpenSSL implemented.
