Technical details

HCL DevOps Deploy and HCL Launch are vulnerable to sensitive information disclosure (CWE-201) within API responses. The vulnerability allows an authenticated user with network access to the API to retrieve sensitive configuration details and secrets that should otherwise be protected. This occurs because the application fails to properly redact or filter sensitive data before sending it to the client. An attacker can leverage this information to facilitate further attacks against the deployment infrastructure. The issue affects multiple version branches including 7.3, 8.0, 8.1, and 8.2.
