Armatura One vulnerabilities

Armatura One's message broker logs client connection credentials and the associated password in plain text during normal operation. Any party with read access to this log, or to a backup or support bundle that includes it, can obtain the logged credential.

Armatura One's backup and restore routine records the full database connection command, including the superuser password, in plain text in a log file on the host. Credentials disclosed by this finding can be used to access the database when access to the server operating system is available.

Armatura One's database initialization routine assigns a fixed, vendor-defined password to the database superuser account at creation time, rather than generating a unique password per installation. An individual with access to the server operating system and knowledge of this value can authenticate as the database superuser on a deployment where it has not been changed.

Armatura One stores database and message-broker credentials in an install configuration file, encrypting them with AES-128-CBC when this protection is enabled. The encryption key and initialization vector are fixed values embedded in the software itself and are identical across every installation. An attacker with a copy of the installation package can recover this key and initialization vector, and can then decrypt the stored credentials of any specific installation to which the attacker separately obtains the encrypted configuration file.
