CVE-2026-14442: Information exposure vulnerability in the job scheduling component of SANnav before 3.0.1a
An information exposure vulnerability in the job scheduling component of SANnav allows sensitive credentials to be written to application logs in plain text. When scheduled support save jobs or related operational tasks are executed, sensitive parameters including external server passwords and archive protection keys are logged without proper masking. A local or authenticated user with access to application logs or support bundles can view these cleartext credentials, potentially leading to unauthorized access to remote backup targets or protected archives.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can access the exposed credentials?
A local or authenticated user who can access SANnav application logs or support bundles can view the credentials in cleartext.
What activity causes credentials to be logged?
The exposure occurs when scheduled support save jobs or related operational tasks execute. Parameters that may be logged include external server passwords and archive protection keys.
What systems or configurations are affected?
SANnav versions before 3.0.1a are affected when the job scheduling component executes the relevant support save or operational tasks. The provided information does not state whether those jobs are enabled by default.
