CVE-2025-12772 — Plaintext Switch admin login password is seen in Brocade SANnav support save
Brocade SANnav before 2.4.0b logs the Brocade Fabric OS Switch admin password on the SANnav support save logs. When OOM occurs on a Brocade SANnav server, the call stack trace for the Brocade switch is also collected in the heap dump file which contains this switch password in clear text. The vulnerability could allow a remote authenticated attacker with admin privilege able to access the SANnav logs or the supportsave to read the switch admin password.
