Comodo Firewall Design Error
Comodo Firewall is prone to a design error in its cryptographic hashing function for component controls. Exploiting this flaw permits attackers to bypass the application's component controls. The application keeps a list of process-module checksums for allowed components. Due to the improper use of a cyclic redundancy check, rather than a cryptographic hash function in developing module checksums, an attacker can trivially insert a malicious control with the same CRC as a trusted component.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of Comodo Firewall to mitigate this vulnerability.
