Authenticated service-account password disclosure via ESCWA
Published Jul 20, 2023 · Updated Oct 21, 2024
Information disclosure in the ESCWA component of five Micro Focus products allows remote authenticated users to expose a service account password. OpenText has not published the affected request, handler, or operation that returns the credential, so the code-level disclosure mechanism is undisclosed. Exploitation requires an ESCWA account and network access; exposed credentials usually have limited privileges but can reveal details of other user accounts.
