Software Infrastructure Manager

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.
