Critical Security Bugs Fixed in Virtual Learning Software

The company behind Netop Vision Pro has fixed four security bugs in its platform. The flaws were disclosed to Netop on Dec. 11, but the company has since issued an update addressing several of the concerns. McAfee Labs Advanced Threat Research team discovered the flaws. One bug (CWE-319: Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information ) stemmed from the ability for an attacker to emulate a teacher s workstation. Researchers reverse engineered teacher User Datagram Protocol messages, which ping the network to alert it to where the teacher is on the network.
