Description
SecObserve versions before 1.59.1 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the ApiConfigurationSerializer that fails to strip the basic_auth_password field from API configuration responses. View-only product members can retrieve the decrypted basic-auth password of configured scanner or integration service accounts through standard REST endpoints.
