What is CVE-2010-3282?

Certain versions of 389 Directory Server and HP-UX Directory Server store the Directory Manager password in cleartext when audit logging is active. This poses a significant risk as local users can potentially access the password by reading the logs, compromising sensitive information and undermining the integrity of the server configuration. It is crucial for administrators to disable audit logging or implement mitigations to prevent unauthorized access to log files that could expose such sensitive data.

Affected Version(s)

389 Directory Server before 1.2.7.1

HP-UX Directory Server before B.08.10.03
