Password disclosure via detailed browser errors
Published Jun 28, 2024 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Password disclosure in IBM MQ Console 9.3 LTS and 9.3 CD allows remote authenticated users to read passwords in browser errors. The affected REST API and Console component returns a detailed technical error message containing sensitive information; IBM has not disclosed the responsible request handler or error path. Low-privileged network access is required, and the bounded consequence is password exposure that can support further attacks against the system.
