On F5 BIG-IP 15.1.x versions prior to 15.1.5.1 and 14.1.x versions prior to 14.1.4.6, when installing Net HSM, the scripts (nethsm-safenet-install.sh and nethsm-thales-install.sh) expose the Net HSM partition password. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

Extended Description

While logging all information may be helpful during development stages, it is important that logging levels be set appropriately before a product ships so that sensitive user data and system information are not accidentally exposed to potential attackers. Different log files may be produced and stored for:
