Summary
AxxonSoft AxxonNet ARP Agent before 3.25.0 on Windows and Linux writes the plaintext password of an LDAP directory service account into its log files. The flaw is an insertion of sensitive information into a log file (CWE-532) through WARNING-level entries that contain serialized user synchronization data. A local attacker with read access to ARP Agent log files or support packages can obtain the LDAP account password.
