Credential disclosure via plaintext command-line argument
Published Apr 15, 2025 · Updated Apr 15, 2025
Cleartext credential exposure in Arctera eDiscovery Platform before 10.3.2 allows local users to read Enterprise Vault passwords. The EVSearcher batch file passes the Enterprise Vault password as a plaintext command-line argument recorded by Sysmon or Process Monitor. Exposure requires the Enterprise Vault Collection Module, one of those monitoring tools on the Windows server, and administrator access to its logs.
