What is CVE-2006-5393?

Cisco Secure Desktop (CSD) has a vulnerability that allows local users to access sensitive memory pages from SSL VPN sessions. This occurs due to improper handling of the ClearPageFileAtShutdown registry setting, which is not enforced to be set to 1. As a result, unprivileged users may obtain access to information from another user's session, leading to potential exposure of confidential data.
