Description Martin Prpič 2016-12-20 07:32:07 EST

Pavel Moravec of Red Hat reports:

It was found that foreman-debug did not obfuscate sensitive information (such as passwords) from the katello-installer log file, allowing a user authorized to access the log files created by foreman-debug to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

Please associate this CVE with this BZ which is already tracking more things our filters do not catch:

The linked one will be either closed as dupe or changed to installer (different problem).

Thanks
