The destroy_one_secret function in nm-setting-vpn.c in libnm-util in the NetworkManager package 0.8.999-3.git20110526 in Fedora 15 creates a log entry containing a certificate password, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading a log file.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-1943 is a local information disclosure issue in Fedora 15's NetworkManager package. A VPN certificate password could be written into logs, letting a local user who can read those logs recover the secret. Exposure appears limited to systems running the cited Fedora 15 NetworkManager build or closely related affected code paths using VPN certificate passwords. The source bundle does not identify broader affected distributions or products. Treat this as a targeted legacy Linux credential-exposure issue. Prioritize if Fedora 15-era NetworkManager systems or retained logs still exist, especially where VPN certificate passwords protect sensitive access. Mitigation focus: Apply vendor NetworkManager updates from FEDORA-2011-7919 or later guidance.; Confirm the upstream fix corresponding to commit 78ce088 is present.; Restrict local access to system and NetworkManager logs..
