Arne Vidstr?m has reported a security issue in ExpertEraser, which may disclose sensitive information to malicious people.
The problem is that the product doesn't support Device Configuration Overlays (DCO) and therefore can't wipe parts of a disk using this feature. This may result in a disk not being wiped sufficiently.
The security issue has been reported in version 2.0.
SOFTWARE: ExpertEraser 2.x
SOLUTION: The vendor reports that all versions shipped after 2005-05-13 now
support DCO.
