Descriptions

xfs_metadump in xfsprogs before 3.2.4 does not properly obfuscate file data, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading a generated image.

Vulnerabilidad en xfs_metadump en xfsprogs en versiones anteriores a la 3.2.4, no ofusca apropiadamente los datos de archivo, lo cual permite a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible mediante la lectura de una imagen generada.

It was discovered that the xfs_metadump tool of the xfsprogs suite did not fully adhere to the standards of obfuscation described in its man page. In case a user with the necessary privileges used xfs_metadump and relied on the advertised obfuscation, the generated data could contain unexpected traces of potentially sensitive information.
