Sensitive information uncleared after debug/power state transition in the Controller 6000 could be abused by an attacker with knowledge of the Controllers default diagnostic password and physical access to the Controller to view its configuration through the diagnostic web pages.
This issue affects: Gallagher Controller 6000 8.70 prior to vCR8.70.231204a (distributed in 8.70.2375 (MR5)), v8.60 or earlier.
The product performs a power or debug state transition, but it does not clear sensitive information that should no longer be accessible due to changes to information access restrictions.

A device or system frequently employs many power and sleep states during its normal operation (e.g., normal power, additional power, low power, hibernate, deep sleep, etc.). A device also may be operating within a debug condition. State transitions can happen from one power or debug state to another. If there is information available in the previous state which should not be available in the next state and is not properly removed before the transition into the next state, sensitive information may leak from the system.
