What it is

⚠️ A sneaky log file is leaking sensitive info! In versions prior to 4.1.1, Aquarius CMS doesn’t restrict access to its log file, which can expose passwords and more. 😱 Think of a restaurant where the kitchen staff leaves the order slips unguarded. Anyone walking by could read the confidential notes, revealing all the secret recipes and customer preferences! If an attacker gains access to this log file, they could uncover sensitive information such as user passwords, potentially leading to unauthorized access to accounts and data breaches. This could be absolutely devastating for any organization relying on Aquarius CMS for secure operations.

CVE-2019-1010308 indicates that the log file in Aquarius CMS is not properly secured, allowing unauthorized users to read it without any access control mechanisms in place.

What to do
