Root credential disclosure via initialization logging
Published Jun 2, 2025 · Updated Jun 2, 2025
Sensitive information exposure in Erudika Para before 1.50.8 allows local users to read root access and secret keys from logs. HealthUtils.saveConfigFile logs both root credentials when a configuration-file operation fails after root-app initialization instead of redacting the secret. Exploitation requires local access to the resulting log output, and the disclosed credentials can authenticate requests as the root application.
