CVE-2019-19096

Credential disclosure via cleartext Redis storage

Published Apr 2, 2020 · Updated Aug 5, 2024

Credential storage weakness in Hitachi Energy eSOMS 6.0 through 6.0.2 allows local users to read cleartext credentials. The Redis data structure component stores eSOMS credentials without cryptographic protection in filesystem-accessible data. Exploitation requires low-privileged local access to that storage and exposes credentials without causing a reported service interruption.
