CVE-2026-14442: CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File in Brocade SANnav
An information exposure vulnerability in the job scheduling component of SANnav allows sensitive credentials to be written to application logs in plain text. When scheduled support save jobs or related operational tasks are executed, sensitive parameters including external server passwords and archive protection keys are logged without proper masking. A local or authenticated user with access to application logs or support bundles can view these cleartext credentials, potentially leading to unauthorized access to remote backup targets or protected archives.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability involves the insertion of sensitive information into application log files by the job scheduling component of Brocade SANnav. When scheduled support save jobs or similar operations run, sensitive parameters including external server passwords and archive protection keys are recorded in clear text within logs. This exposure allows local or authenticated users who can access these logs or support bundles to obtain sensitive credentials, potentially leading to unauthorized access to backup or archive resources. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates the attack requires local access with low complexity and no user interaction, with high impact on confidentiality.
Potential Impact
Sensitive credentials are exposed in application logs in clear text, enabling local or authenticated users with log access to retrieve passwords and keys. This can lead to unauthorized access to remote backup targets or protected archives, compromising confidentiality and potentially the integrity of backup data.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to application logs and support bundles to trusted users only to minimize exposure of sensitive credentials.
