admin/user/create_user.php in Kolab Groupware Server 1.0.0 places a user password in an HTTP GET request, which allows local administrators, and possibly remote attackers, to obtain cleartext passwords by reading the ssl_access_log file or the referer string.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Kolab Groupware Server 1.0.0 could expose newly created user passwords because the admin user-creation page sent them in a URL. URLs are commonly stored in web logs and referrer records, so cleartext passwords may be visible to people or systems with log access. Exposure is most likely in legacy Kolab Groupware Server 1.0.0 installations where the admin interface was used to create users and web/referrer logs were retained or broadly accessible. Treat this as a legacy credential-exposure issue. It is not backed by active-exploitation evidence in the provided sources, but any confirmed affected system should be remediated because exposed passwords can enable account compromise. Mitigation focus: Review MDVSA-2008:193 and Kolab guidance for fixed packages or vendor remediation.; Restrict access to Kolab administrative interfaces and related web server logs.; Rotate passwords for users created through the affected workflow..
