Oops, Xorux Did It Again: Sensitive Info Slip-Up in LPAR2RRD Logs!

Xorux LPAR2RRD users were left scratching their heads when read-only user logs revealed sensitive data, including password hashes. Who knew a simple log download could turn into a security breach? Xorux swiftly released version 8.05 to patch this leak, proving once again that even in tech, it’s good to log out.

Hot Take:

Who knew read-only could be so revealing? In a plot twist that rivals a spy thriller, Xorux’s LPAR2RRD allows even the most harmless ‘read-only’ users to take a peek behind the curtain, grabbing sensitive information faster than you can say ‘password hash’. Maybe it’s time to redefine ‘read-only’ to ‘read-and-reveal’!

Key Points:

  • Xorux LPAR2RRD has a vulnerability allowing read-only users to access sensitive logs.
  • The flaw affects versions 8.04 and prior on Rocky Linux 8.10.
  • This issue can lead to exposure of password hashes for all users, including admin.
  • Xorux has released version 8.05 to patch this vulnerability.
  • The security hole was discovered by Jim Becher of KoreLogic, Inc.
