Summary

The encryption algorithm used to protect the configuration of user accounts, stored in the built-in user directory of PcVue projects, all versions prior to 17.0.0, is not strong enough for the level of protection required. A local attacker could alter the existing configuration and ultimately gain privileged access to the PcVue application.
