IBM Lotus Notes does not properly restrict access to password hashes in the Notes Address Book (NAB), which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via the (1) password digest field in the Administration tab of a Lotus Notes client, (2) "PasswordDigest" and "HTTPPassword" fields in the document properties in the NAB, or (3) a direct query to the Domino LDAP server, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2428.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue could let a remote party view Lotus Notes password hash data stored in the Notes Address Book. The sources do not provide a severity score, known exploited status, or confirmed vendor fix details. Treat it as a legacy credential-exposure risk, especially where Domino LDAP or NAB access remains reachable. Exposure is most likely in legacy IBM Lotus Notes/Domino environments where users or remote parties can access the Notes Address Book or Domino LDAP service. The bundle does not identify affected versions. Prioritize discovery if Lotus Notes/Domino remains in use. If the platform is retired, document that status. If still active, handle as a credential exposure risk requiring access review and vendor-guided remediation. Mitigation focus: Inventory remaining IBM Lotus Notes/Domino and NAB deployments.; Check IBM or current vendor guidance for affected versions and fixes.; Restrict NAB and Domino LDAP access to trusted authorized users..
