CVE-2026-87779 Details
Description
Insertion of sensitive information into log file vulnerability in Apache Syncope. When AES key of non-standard length (not 16/24/32 bytes) is configured, Syncope will pad the provided value with random characters. The resulting key value is logged. This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0.15 through 3.0.16, from 4.0.3 through 4.0.7, from 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.2. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.8 / 4.1.3, which fix this issue.
A vulnerability exists in Apache Syncope versions 3.0.15 through 3.0.16, 4.0.3 through 4.0.7, and 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.2, allowing the insertion of sensitive information into log files. When an AES key of non-standard length (not 16, 24, or 32 bytes) is used, Syncope pads the key with random characters.
