ovirt-engine before version 4.1.7.6 with log level set to DEBUG includes passwords in the log file without masking. Only administrators can change the log level and only administrators can access the logs. This presents a risk when debug-level logs are shared with vendors or other parties to troubleshoot issues.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue can cause oVirt Engine to write passwords into debug logs without masking. The main business risk is accidental credential disclosure when administrators collect or share debug logs with vendors or other third parties during troubleshooting. Exposure is most likely in oVirt environments running affected ovirt-engine versions where administrators enabled DEBUG logging. Normal deployments without DEBUG logging are less exposed, but historical debug logs may still contain sensitive data. Prioritize remediation where oVirt is production-critical, DEBUG logging was used, or logs left administrator control. This is less likely to be internet-scale exploitation, but credential exposure can still create serious downstream risk. Mitigation focus: Apply Red Hat/oVirt updates from RHEA-2017:3138 or a vendor-supported fixed release.; Avoid DEBUG logging unless required for a specific troubleshooting window.; Restrict access to oVirt Engine logs to trusted administrators only..

Improper Removal of Sensitive Information Before Storage or Transfer

Improper Removal of Sensitive Information Before Storage or Transfer represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
