Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Cisco Nexus Dashboard Insights (affected versions not specified)
Description A vulnerability in the logging function of Cisco Nexus Dashboard Insights could allow an attacker with access to a tech support file to view sensitive information. This issue exists because remote controller credentials are recorded in an internal log stored in the tech support file. An attacker could exploit this by accessing a tech support file from an affected system, potentially allowing them to view remote controller admin credentials in clear text. It is recommended to store debug logs and tech support files safely and share them only with trusted parties, as they may contain sensitive information.
Recommendations As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to tech support files to minimize the risk of exploitation. Store debug logs and tech support files safely and share them only with trusted parties because they may contain sensitive information. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
