CVE-2025-12772Network attack vector

Switch credential disclosure via unredacted support artifacts

Published Feb 2, 2026 · Updated Feb 2, 2026

Cleartext password storage in Brocade SANnav before 2.4.0b allows remote authenticated users to read a Fabric OS switch admin password. Support save logging records the password, and an out-of-memory condition also places it in a collected call-stack heap dump without redaction. Access requires SANnav administrative privileges and permission to retrieve logs or supportsave data; exposure grants the switch administrator credential.
