## Overview

A vulnerability has been identified in
BRAIN2 versions up to and including version 3.09. Under specific installation
conditions, the password of a Windows service account may be written in
cleartext to a setup log file. The issue occurs when Microsoft SQL Server
access is configured using Integrated Security and the Windows account intended
to run the BRAIN2 MainService is specified during execution of the BRAIN2
installation wizard. The setup log file is stored in the
temporary directory of the Windows administrator performing the installation.
This directory is not accessible to standard Windows users and can generally
only be accessed by users with administrative privileges. Successful exploitation could result in the
disclosure of credentials belonging to the configured BRAIN2 service account.

## Affected

- `BRAIN2 >= 0.0 < 3.10`

## Remediation

This vulnerability has been fixed in BRAIN2
version 3.10.





Customers are strongly advised to upgrade
to BRAIN2 version 3.10 or later.

### Workarounds

Until an upgrade can be applied, Bizerba
recommends implementing the following measures:





·        
Delete BRAIN2 installation log
files after successful installation.





·        
Restrict administrative access
to affected systems.





·        
Ensure temporary directories
containing installation artifacts are adequately protected.





·        
Change the password of the
configured service account if credential exposure is suspected.





Administrators should review and remove
setup log files following the naming convention:
