Hi there
I am having Nessus 2.2.3 with todays plugins report that on a fully
patched WinXP SP2 workstation:
"The following registry keys are writable by users who are not in the
admin group - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run"
I went in with regedit and it's not. Only SYSTEM and the Administrators
group had full control. A couple of others had READ, and CREATOR OWNER
had "Special".
I think I reported one similar to this (another Registry key perm issue)
a few weeks ago? Probably the same cause?
