New beta version 19.5.2378

[NON]

Hello everyone!

We have prepared and new detection into the packet layer of WebShield for the recent vulnerability via Remote Desktop (RDP) protocol (CVE-2019-0708 ). To test this, you need to restart the PC so that the new components are loaded. Those of you, who use Remote Desktop, please do and report any issues (false positives) when connecting to your machines via Remote Desktop!

Thanks!

Hi HK, does this detection work on server side or client side? (i.e. Avast needs to be installed on Remote Desktop Host machine or client machine?)
Does this work with non-default port number (other than 3389)?

Hi NON,

sorry for late reply. Avast blocks both In and Out directions and it checks default port (3389) only.

Thanks HK, I'll try and see

Trying RDP. Mainly on client use (Client machine has Avast Beta installed, server machine doesn't), no problems so far.
