- Affected:
3.5.2 and below
- Severity:
High
- Vendor:
The Apache Software Foundation
2.23.1. Description
The CouchDB /_replicator database (and prefixed variants) allow
specification of source and target credentials in two forms: as a URL string and
as a URL object. When non-owner users retrieve a replication documents, CouchDB
obfuscates credentials only in the URL string case. URL objects will show non-
owners the credentials.
2.23.2. Mitigation
URL objects in replication docs are now correctly obfuscating credentials for non-owners.
2.23.3. Workarounds
N/A
