+ <title>Paros: Default administrator password</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Paros's database component is installed without a password, allowing
+ execution of arbitrary system commands.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Paros is an intercepting proxy between a web server and a client
+ meant to be used for security assessments. It allows the user to watch
+ and modify the HTTP(S) traffic.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Andrew Christensen discovered that in older versions of Paros the
+ database component HSQLDB is installed with an empty password for the
+ database administrator "sa".
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ Since the database listens globally by default, an attacker can
+ connect and issue arbitrary commands, including execution of binaries
+ installed on the host.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Paros users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --snyc
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-proxy/paros-3.2.8"</code>
