Summary

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 16.1, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for NVIDIA 16.1 and openSUSE Leap 16.1 are affected. On request, the sdbootutil script creates the debug log /var/log/sdbootutil.log with world-readable permissions (CWE-732). Any local user with low privileges can read secrets from the log.

Description from the CNA

On request the `sdbootutil` script creates a world-readable debug log in /var/log/sdbootutil.log. The log file is created world-readable, however, which means that arbitrary low-privileged users in the system will be able to extract secrets from it.
