Summary

A vulnerability in Brocade SANnav before 3.0.1 can have the Brocade Fabric OS switch admin password captured in plaintext within a memory swap file on the server hosting the Brocade SANnav Virtual Machine (VM). This can happen when the SANnav server encounters an Out Of Memory (OOM) condition. The vulnerability could allow an authenticated admin user with access to the server hosting the SANnav to potentially view the memory swap file and access the password(s).

Risk Assessment

Exposure of switch admin passwords could enable unauthorized access to SAN infrastructure, which is critical for security.

Recommendation

Upgrade Brocade SANnav to version 3.0.1 or later and restrict access to the hosting server to trusted administrators only.
