Ionic Team Cordova plugin iOS Keychain version before commit 18233ca25dfa92cca018b9c0935f43f78fd77fbf contains an Information Exposure Through Log Files (CWE-532) vulnerability in CDVKeychain.m that can result in login, password and other sensitive data leakage. This attack appear to be exploitable via Attacker must have access to victim's iOS logs. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in after commit 18233ca25dfa92cca018b9c0935f43f78fd77fbf.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

Older versions of Ionic Team's Cordova plugin iOS Keychain could expose sensitive data, including logins and passwords, through iOS logs. An attacker would need access to a victim's iOS logs, so the provided sources do not describe remote exploitation. The record says the issue was fixed after a specific commit, but does not name a release version.

Executive priority

Treat this as a targeted cleanup item for affected mobile apps, not an internet-wide emergency. Prioritize if the plugin handled customer credentials, logs were centrally collected, or test and support workflows retained device logs.

Technical view

CVE-2018-1000123 is an information exposure issue in CDVKeychain.m in cordova-plugin-ios-keychain before commit 18233ca25dfa92cca018b9c0935f43f78fd77fbf. The CVE description maps the weakness to sensitive data written to log files. Affected version ranges, CVSS, and packaged fixed releases are not provided in the source bundle.

Likely exposure

Exposure is likely limited to iOS applications using the Ionic Team Cordova iOS Keychain plugin versions before the fixing commit. Risk depends on whether sensitive values were logged and whether device, diagnostic, or development logs were accessible.

Exploitation context

The provided CVE record says exploitation requires access to the victim's iOS logs. The source bundle does not indicate public exploitation, weaponized tooling, or CISA KEV listing.

Researcher notes

Evidence is sparse: no CVSS, CPEs, concrete affected versions, or release tags are provided. The strongest source-grounded facts are the vulnerable component, sensitive log exposure, required log access, and the commit-based fix boundary.

Mitigation direction

  • Identify apps using cordova-plugin-ios-keychain.
  • Compare the plugin source against the fixing commit.
  • Update to a version containing the referenced fix.
  • Review vendor or project guidance for release mapping.
  • Rotate exposed credentials if logs may have leaked.

Validation and detection

  • Search mobile app dependencies for cordova-plugin-ios-keychain.
  • Inspect CDVKeychain.m for sensitive logging behavior.
  • Confirm deployed builds include the post-fix code.
  • Review retained iOS logs for exposed secrets.
  • Document whether production logging collected keychain values.
