Citrix Password Manager Security Issue

A security issue has been reported in Citrix MetaFrame Password Manager, which may disclose authentication information. The problem is that the credential record encryption object may be initialised incorrectly by the "First Time Use" wizard. This will cause application passwords entered immediately after completion of the "First Time Use" wizard to be encoded but not encrypted. The problem will only exist if an administrator hasn't configured the agent to point to a central credential store.
