Credential disclosure via QKView log generation
Published Aug 14, 2024 · Updated Aug 14, 2024
Credential exposure in F5 BIG-IP Next Central Manager 20.1.0 through versions before 20.2.1 allows local users to read iHealth credentials. During QKView generation for a managed BIG-IP Next instance, Central Manager writes configured F5 iHealth credentials into its logs instead of excluding sensitive values. Exploitation requires high privileges and passive interaction; the documented impact is credential disclosure without data modification or service interruption.
