CVE-2022-43933

Credential disclosure via supportsave secret logging

Published Nov 21, 2024 · Updated Nov 21, 2024

Information exposure in Brocade SANnav before 2.2.2 allows local users with administrator access to read configuration secrets. The supportsave collection process writes configuration values, including usernames, passwords, and secret keys, into its generated troubleshooting archive without redacting them. Exploitation requires an administrator to generate the supportsave file, after which access to the archive exposes the recorded credentials and keys.
