VAR-200909-0306
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:19The screensharing feature in the Admin application in Apple Xsan before 2.2 places a cleartext username and password in a URL within an error dialog, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain credentials by reading this dialog. Apple Xsan is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability affecting the Xsan Admin component. Successful exploits may allow attackers with physical access to an affected computer to obtain password data. Information harvested may aid in launching further attacks. Versions prior to Xsan 2.2 are vulnerable. Xsan is an enterprise-class storage network solution, and Xsan Admin is an application for simplifying SAN management. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
