Control Vulnerability
EMC Identifier: ESA-2013-012
CVE Identifier: CVE-2013-0931
Severity Rating: CVSS v2 Base Score: 6.0 (AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P)
Affected Products:
Product: RSA Authentication Agent for Microsoft Windows version 7.1 and 7.1.1

Summary:
A user may incorrectly gain access to a desktop or a server protected by RSA
SecurID Authentication Agent v7.1 or v7.1.1.
Details:
When an RSA Authentication Agent 7.1 or 7.1.1 for Windows (for above listed
platforms only) protected system is configured to use Quick PIN Unlock,
activating the session from active screensaver after the Quick PIN Unlock
timeout has expired incorrectly results in a prompt for a PIN only as opposed
to a full Passcode.
Resolution:
The following products contain resolution to the issue:
RSA Authentication Agent for Microsoft Windows version 7.1.2. RSA strongly
recommends all customers upgrade to these versions at the earliest
opportunity.
If you cannot upgrade, the workaround is to disable Quick PIN Unlock, as
described in the product documentation.
