CVE-2026-56457Network attack vector

Sensitive step-value disclosure via output logging

Published Jun 29, 2026 · Updated Jun 29, 2026

Sensitive information exposure in HCL DevOps Deploy / HCL Launch allows remote authenticated users to read sensitive step values from output logs. The affected step writes sensitive values into its output log instead of excluding or masking them; HCL has not identified the responsible component or value types. Access to the logs is required, and exposure is limited to confidentiality in 7.3 through 7.3.2.18, 8.0 through 8.0.1.13, 8.1 through 8.1.2.6, and 8.2 through 8.2.1.0.
