Credential disclosure via plaintext Input Text configuration
Published May 6, 2026 · Updated May 6, 2026
Insufficiently protected credentials in HCL BigFix Runbook AI 11.2 allow remote authenticated users to disclose password data via Input Text. The authentication configuration interface accepts plaintext password values through Input Text instead of requiring a configured vault reference. High-privilege access is required; HCL has not published how the value is retrieved, and the disclosed impact is limited to confidentiality.
