## Affected

- Broadcom Brocade SANnav: before SANnav 2.4.0a

## Description

Brocade SANnav before SANnav 2.4.0a logs plaintext passphrases in the Brocade SANnav host server audit logs while executing OpenSSL command using a passphrase from the command line or while providing the passphrase through a temporary file. These audit logs are the local server VM’s audit logs and are not controlled by SANnav. These logs are only visible to the server admin of the host server and are not visible to the SANnav admin or any SANnav user.
