First off I hope this is the proper place to discuss this. Please read
the Security response from Cisco below. We have SSL VPN (SVC, Tunneling)
remote users that establish sessions with our corporate network. They
need the ability to map drives to servers once the session is
established. In order to map drives it requires that TCP ports 139 and
445 to be open and there in lies the problem so I cannot filter these
ports. Cisco's ASA Secure Desktop allows me to check for the presence of
service packs and any registry entry on the remote client PC's and can
restrict access if they are not installed. I believe that Microsoft
released a fix for this vulnerability last week and would like to ensure
that our remote users have the fix applied and if not deny access. Can
anyone provide the necessary registry entry that I am to look for to
ensure they have it installed before allowing them to establish a
session.
Thanks,
Paul
