Hi,

 

I come to report a little strange discolsure discovered by my co-worker
Fx0day.

 

When you save session informations under putty and you need proxy for a
session,

We can find in plain clear text the login and password proxy auth in the
windows database register.

 

Strange to see a good ssh client storing plain clear text « hot »
informations !!

 

 

Cordialement
