Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information

Synapse is an open-source Matrix homeserver written and maintained by the Matrix.org Foundation. When users update their passwords, the new credentials may be briefly held in the server database. While this doesn't grant the server any added capabilities—it already learns the users' passwords as part of the authentication process—it does disrupt the expectation that passwords won't be stored in the database. As a result, these passwords could inadvertently be captured in database backups for a longer duration. These temporarily stored passwords are automatically erased after a 48-hour window. This issue has been addressed in version 1.93.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue.Show less

A cleartext storage of sensitive information vulnerability [CWE-312] in FortiTester 2.3.0 through 7.2.3 may allow an attacker with access to the DB contents to retrieve the plaintext password of external servers configured in the device.Show less

A password management vulnerability in Skyhigh Secure Web Gateway (SWG) in main releases 11.x prior to 11.2.14, 10.x prior to 10.2.25 and controlled release 12.x prior to 12.2.1, allows some authentication information stored in configuration files to be extracted through SWG REST API. This was possible due to SWG storing the password in plain text in some configuration files. Show less

An information disclosure issue in GitLab EE affecting all versions from 16.2 prior to 16.2.5, and 16.3 prior to 16.3.1 allowed other Group Owners to see the Public Key for a Google Cloud Logging audit event streaming destination, if configured. Owners can now only write the key, not read it.Show less

Brocade SANnav before v2.3.0 and v2.2.2a stores SNMPv3 Authentication passwords in plaintext. A privileged user could retrieve these credentials with knowledge and access to these log files. SNMP credentials could be seen in SANnav SupportSave if the capture is performed after an SNMP configuration failure causes an SNMP communication log dump. Show less

Possible information exposure through log file vulnerability where sensitive fields are recorded in the configuration log without masking on Brocade SANnav before v2.3.0 and 2.2.2a. Notes: To access the logs, the local attacker must have access to an already collected Brocade SANnav "supportsave" outputs.Show less

The firmwaredownload command on Brocade Fabric OS v9.2.0 could log the FTP/SFTP/SCP server password in clear text in the SupportSave file when performing a downgrade from Fabric OS v9.2.0 to any earlier version of Fabric OS.Show less

A vulnerability was found in Control iD Gerencia Web 1.30 and classified as problematic. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the component Cookie Handler. The manipulation leads to cleartext storage of sensitive information. The attack may be launched remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier of this vulnerability is VDB-237380. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.Show less

An issue was discovered in MariaDB MaxScale before 23.02.3. A user enters an encrypted password on a "maxctrl create service" command line, but this password is then stored in cleartext in the resulting .cnf file under /var/lib/maxscale/maxscale.cnf.d. The fixed versions are 2.5.28, 6.4.9, 22.08.8, and 23.02.3.Show less

In SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence - version 420, If a user logs in to a particular program, under certain specific conditions memory might not be cleared up properly, due to which attacker might be able to get access to user credentials. For a successful attack, the attacker needs to have local access to the system. There is no impact on availability and integrity.Show less

An issue was discovered in Fujitsu Software Infrastructure Manager (ISM) before 2.8.0.061. The ismsnap component (in this specific case at /var/log/fujitsu/ServerViewSuite/ism/FirmwareManagement/FirmwareManagement.log) allows insecure collection and storage of authorization credentials in cleartext. That occurs when users perform any ISM Firmware Repository Address setup test (Test the Connection), or regularly authorize against an already configured remote firmware repository site, as set up in ISM Firmware Repository Address. A privileged attacker is therefore able to potentially gather the associated ismsnap maintenance data, in the same manner as a trusted party allowed to export ismsnap data from ISM. The preconditions for an ISM installation to be generally vulnerable are that the Download Firmware (Firmware Repository Server) function is enabled and configured, and that the character \ (backslash) is used in a user credential (i.e., user/ID or password) of the remote proxy host / firmware repository server. NOTE: this may overlap CVE-2023-39379.Show less

Fujitsu Software Infrastructure Manager (ISM) stores sensitive information at the product's maintenance data (ismsnap) in cleartext form. As a result, the password for the proxy server that is configured in ISM may be retrieved. Affected products and versions are as follows: Fujitsu Software Infrastructure Manager Advanced Edition V2.8.0.060, Fujitsu Software Infrastructure Manager Advanced Edition for PRIMEFLEX V2.8.0.060, and Fujitsu Software Infrastructure Manager Essential Edition V2.8.0.060.
