An internal product security audit of LXCO, prior to version 1.2.2, discovered that optional passwords, if specified, for the Syslog and SMTP forwarders are written to an internal LXCO log file in clear text. Affected logs are captured in the First Failure Data Capture (FFDC) service log. The FFDC service log is only generated when requested by a privileged LXCO user and it is only accessible to the privileged LXCO user that requested the file.
The product transmits sensitive or security-critical data in cleartext in a communication channel that can be sniffed by unauthorized actors.
