Credential disclosure via unmasked authentication logging
Published Apr 14, 2023 · Updated Feb 7, 2025
Credential exposure in TigerGraph Enterprise Free Edition 3.7.0 allows attackers with administrative log access to recover GSQL passwords. The GSQL request logger writes every authenticated access request, including the Basic Authorization username and password encoded in reversible base64, to multiple log locations instead of masking the credential. Administrative access to those logs is required, and disclosed passwords can be harvested for access under affected user identities.
