An Insufficiently Protected Credentials issue was discovered in LOYTEC LVIS-3ME versions prior to 6.2.0. The application does not sufficiently protect sensitive information from unauthorized access.

IBM API Connect 5.0.0.0 could allow a user to bypass policy restrictions and create non-compliant passwords which could be intercepted and decrypted using man in the middle techniques. IBM X-Force ID: 127160.

The EjbObjectInputStream class in Apache TomEE before 1.7.4 and 7.x before 7.0.0-M3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized object.

salt: win_useradd module and salt-cloud display passwords in debug log

win_useradd, salt-cloud and the Linode driver in salt 2015.5.x before 2015.5.6, and 2015.8.x before 2015.8.1 leak password information in debug logs.

salt: git module leaks authentication details into log

salt before 2015.5.5 leaks git usernames and passwords to the log.

An issue was discovered on Humax Digital HG100R 2.0.6 devices. To download the backup file it's not necessary to use credentials, and the router credentials are stored in plaintext inside the backup, aka GatewaySettings.bin.

ProFTPD before 1.3.5e and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc5 controls whether the home directory of a user could contain a symbolic link through the AllowChrootSymlinks configuration option, but checks only the last path component when enforcing AllowChrootSymlinks. Attackers with local access could bypass the AllowChrootSymlinks control by replacing a path component (other than the last one) with a symbolic link. The threat model includes an attacker who is not granted full filesystem access by a hosting provider, but can reconfigure the home directory of an FTP user.

postgresql: pg_user_mappings view discloses foreign server passwords

PostgreSQL versions 8.4 - 9.6 are vulnerable to information leak in pg_user_mappings view which discloses foreign server passwords to any user having USAGE privilege on the associated foreign server.

rpm: Following symlinks to files when installing packages allows privilege escalation

It was found that versions of rpm before 4.13.0.2 use temporary files with predictable names when installing an RPM. An attacker with ability to write in a directory where files will be installed could create symbolic links to an arbitrary location and modify content, and possibly permissions to arbitrary files, which could be used for denial of service or possibly privilege escalation.

jboss: JbossMQ HTTP Invocation Layer deserialization vulnerability

HTTPServerILServlet.java in JMS over HTTP Invocation Layer of the JbossMQ implementation, which is enabled by default in Red Hat Jboss Application Server <= Jboss 4.X does not restrict the classes for which it performs deserialization, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted serialized data.

An issue was discovered in EMC ScaleIO 2.0.1.x. In a Linux environment, one of the support scripts saves the credentials of the ScaleIO MDM user who executed the script in clear text in temporary log files. The temporary files may potentially be read by an unprivileged user with access to the server where the script was executed to recover exposed credentials.

The Cloud Controller and Router in Cloud Foundry (CAPI-release capi versions prior to v1.32.0, Routing-release versions prior to v0.159.0, CF-release versions prior to v267) do not validate the issuer on JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) from UAA. With certain multi-zone UAA configurations, zone administrators are able to escalate their privileges.

The setpermissions function in the auto-updater in Arq before 5.9.7 for Mac allows local users to gain root privileges via a symlink attack on the updater binary itself.

On the TP-Link TL-SG108E 1.0, a remote attacker could retrieve credentials from "SEND data" log lines where passwords are encoded in hexadecimal. This affects the 1.1.2 Build 20141017 Rel.50749 firmware.

On the TP-Link TL-SG108E 1.0, a remote attacker could retrieve credentials from "Switch Info" log lines where passwords are in cleartext. This affects the 1.1.2 Build 20141017 Rel.50749 firmware.

Unspecified tests in Lynis before 2.5.0 allow local users to write to arbitrary files or possibly gain privileges via a symlink attack on a temporary file.

glibc: memory leak in sunrpc when decoding malformed XDR

The xdr_bytes and xdr_string functions in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) 2.25 mishandle failures of buffer deserialization, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (virtual memory allocation, or memory consumption if an overcommit setting is not used) via a crafted UDP packet to port 111, a related issue to CVE-2017-8779. NOTE: [Information provided from upstream and references

The Debian pg_ctlcluster, pg_createcluster, and pg_upgradecluster scripts, as distributed in the Debian postgresql-common package before 181+deb9u1 for PostgreSQL (and other packages related to Debian and Ubuntu), handled symbolic links insecurely, which could result in local denial of service by overwriting arbitrary files.

Deserialization vulnerability in lintian through 2.5.50.3 allows attackers to trigger code execution by requesting a review of a source package with a crafted YAML file.

Cleartext password storage exists on Peplink Balance 305, 380, 580, 710, 1350, and 2500 devices with firmware before fw-b305hw2_380hw6_580hw2_710hw3_1350hw2_2500-7.0.1-build2093. The files in question are /etc/waipass and /etc/roapass. In case one of these devices is compromised, the attacker can gain access to passwords and abuse them to compromise further systems.
