Dell EMC RecoverPoint versions prior to 5.1.2 and RecoverPoint for VMs versions prior to 5.1.1.3, under certain conditions, may leak LDAP password in plain-text into the RecoverPoint log file. An authenticated malicious user with access to the RecoverPoint log files may obtain the exposed LDAP password to use it in further attacks.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability can cause Dell EMC RecoverPoint logs to contain an LDAP password in clear text. The attacker already needs authentication and access to those logs, but the exposed password could let them pivot into other systems that trust LDAP credentials. Exposure is limited to organizations running affected RecoverPoint or RecoverPoint for VMs versions with LDAP configured and log access available to users beyond tightly trusted administrators. Treat this as a credential-exposure risk, not a remote takeover. Prioritize affected backup and recovery environments because leaked LDAP credentials can increase business impact beyond RecoverPoint itself. Mitigation focus: Upgrade RecoverPoint to 5.1.2 or later.; Upgrade RecoverPoint for VMs to 5.1.1.3 or later.; Review Dell EMC advisory guidance for any product-specific handling..
