OAuth client secret disclosure via plaintext installer artifacts
Published Sep 8, 2026 · Updated Sep 10, 2026
Credential exposure in Okta Hyperdrive Integration Plugin before 1.5.2 allows local users to read an OAuth client secret from Windows artifacts. The MSI package passes the client-secret property without masking it, so installer logs, Application Event Log entries, and the installer process command line retain it in plaintext. Exposure requires an installation that supplies the secret as an MSI property; local users can recover the credential, but no service interruption is reported.
