Vulnerability Data

mintplex-labs/anything-llm version latest contains a vulnerability where sensitive information, specifically a password, is improperly stored within a JWT (JSON Web Token) used as a bearer token in single user mode. When decoded, the JWT reveals the password in plaintext. This…

more

improper storage of sensitive information poses significant security risks, as an attacker who gains access to the JWT can easily decode it and retrieve the password. The issue is fixed in version 1.0.3.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SC-28 requires cryptographic or equivalent protection of sensitive data at rest, directly stopping cleartext storage in accessible resources.

Encryption and cryptographic controls for data-at-rest directly prevent cleartext storage of sensitive information.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

mitigates

Requiring non-standard deletion or physical destruction of media ensures that sensitive information is not left in cleartext on discarded or repurposed equipment.

mitigates

Secure deletion of data before device transfer prevents residual sensitive information from remaining in cleartext on storage media that leave organizational control.

mitigates

Secure deletion of obsolete or temporary copies prevents sensitive data from remaining in cleartext on disk after its intended lifetime.

A.8.11 Data masking partial match
mitigates

Substituting real values with hashes or encrypted tokens before storage reduces the quantity of cleartext sensitive information that ends up persisted on disk.

finds

When clear-text sensitive data is detected leaving controlled storage, the control can block the transfer, thereby limiting the exposure that would result from unencrypted storage on external media or cloud services.

mitigates

By insisting that any retained test copies be stored securely and only for testing, the control reduces the likelihood that clear-text operational data will persist on disk or in backups.
