SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/12101/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
Security Bypass

WHERE:
Local system

SOFTWARE:
I-Café client 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/3701/

DESCRIPTION:
Lostmon has reported a weakness in I-Café client, allowing malicious
users to by disable the software.

The problem is that users are able to deactivate the software by
using "Ctrl+Alt+Delete", before the system completes the boot
sequence, to close the process.

It may also be possible to bypass the protection by using various
features in other programs and features in the underlying operating
system.

These issues have been reported to affect I-Café 2.6 on a Windows 98
based system. This may also affect I-Café on other Microsoft Windows
releases.

SOLUTION:
Do not rely on I-Cafe to restrict user privileges.

Use newer operating systems with proper user / privilege separation.
This is not supported in Windows 95, 98 and Me.
