Authenticated password disclosure via unmasked action parameter
Published Aug 19, 2026 · Updated Aug 20, 2026
Information disclosure in the Cisco Secure Malware Analytics app before 2.4.5 allows remote authenticated users to view a sample password. The detonate file action declares sample_password without the password type, causing Splunk SOAR to render the supplied secret in cleartext instead of masking it. Exploitation requires a role permitted to run actions and discloses only the password supplied for sandbox detonation.
