Security readout for executives and security teams

Novell Identity Manager 3.6.1 could leave administrator tree credentials in an installer log under /tmp. A person with local access to the server may read that file and obtain sensitive credentials. The business risk is credential exposure on legacy IDM hosts, not a remote internet attack based on the supplied sources. Exposure is most likely on legacy Novell Identity Manager 3.6.1 engine installation hosts where /tmp/idmInstall.log remains present after installation and is readable by local non-administrative users. Treat this as a targeted cleanup item for legacy identity infrastructure. It is not evidenced as remotely exploitable, but exposed administrator credentials can materially increase breach impact if a local account or server is already compromised. Mitigation focus: Review Novell support guidance for the affected IDM 3.6.1 installer issue.; Find and secure or remove exposed idmInstall.log files per vendor guidance.; Rotate any admin tree credentials that may have been written to the log..
