Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.56%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

The application sets the encrypt flag with the password "ITsILLEGAL"; however, this password is not required to extract the data. Cleartext is used for a user password.
