CVE-2025-53670

Enforces access control so that only explicitly authorized subjects can read job configuration files containing credentials.

Limits the set of users granted Item/Extended Read or filesystem access to the minimum necessary, reducing exposure of plaintext credentials.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
