Technical details
A local information disclosure vulnerability (CWE-214) in cockpit-machines exposes RHSM offline tokens when they are passed as command-line arguments to a helper script during token validation. An attacker with local user privileges can inspect process metadata via /proc to capture the token while validation is in progress, then use it to request access tokens. The vulnerability requires local host access, low privileges, and window of time during the validation workflow.
