Symantec has released hotfixes for its pcAnywhere software. The updates address all known security issues in versions 12.0, 12.1 and 12.5 (including SP2, SP2, and SP3). Concerns still abound because the source code has been stolen by hackers, giving them unlimited access to find other security issues within the software.
We are already seeing someone scanning for open pcAnywhere installations on the Internet on port 5631. Users of pcAnywhere software should apply the patch immediately.
