Security readout for executives and security teams
EMC VPLEX GeoSynchrony 5.4 SP1 before P3 could store NAVISPHERE GUI passwords in cleartext in a log file by default. A person with local access to the system could read the file and recover sensitive credentials. Exposure is most likely limited to organizations running EMC VPLEX GeoSynchrony 5.4 SP1 before P3, especially where multiple local users or support accounts can access system logs. Treat this as a targeted storage-infrastructure hygiene issue. It is not described as remotely exploitable, but exposed storage management credentials can create serious operational impact if local access controls are weak. Mitigation focus: Apply EMC guidance for GeoSynchrony 5.4 SP1 P3 or later where applicable.; Restrict local shell and log-file access to trusted administrators only.; Rotate NAVISPHERE GUI passwords if vulnerable logs may have been readable..
