TeamViewer is a remote PC support/control and screen-sharing tool. While in most cases an attacker requires an existing session on a system, if the registry/configuration keys were stored off of the machine (such as in a file share or online), an attacker could then decrypt the required password to login to the system.TeamViewer Portable 5 has been released. The latest version still uses the same key for OptionPasswordAES but appears to have changed how the Unattended Access password is stored. With versions before v9.x, this allowed for attackers to decrypt the Unattended Access password to the system (which allows for remote login to the system as well as headless file browsing). If an attacker were to know this key, they could decrypt protect information stored in the registry or configuration files of TeamViewer. TeamViewer is a leading global technology company that provides a connectivity platform to remotely access, control, manage, monitor, and repair devices of any kind from laptops and mobile phones to industrial machines and robots. It used a shared AES key for all installations since at least as far back as v8, and used it for at least OptionsPasswordAES in the current version of the product. TeamViewer 12 is a sophisticated remote access application that allows users to connect to other computers over the internet for purposes of support. TeamViewer Desktop through allows a bypass of remote-login access control because the same key is used for different customers' installations.
