Summary

The vulnerability in WRQ Reflection for Secure IT Windows Server 6.0 (formerly F-Secure SSH server) is that the server processes access and deny lists in a case-sensitive manner, while previous versions were case-insensitive. This may allow remote attackers to bypass restrictions and log in to accounts that should be denied.

Risk Assessment

The risk involves potential unauthorized access to user accounts that should be excluded by configuration, which could lead to confidentiality and integrity breaches.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update the software to the latest version or apply security patches from the vendor. Also review and adjust access lists to account for case sensitivity in account names.
