CVE-2017-6911
USB Pratirodh is prone to sensitive information disclosure.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.57%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
USB Pratirodh is prone to sensitive information disclosure. It stores sensitive information such as username and password in simple usb.xml. An attacker with physical access to the system can modify the file according his own requirements that may aid in further attack.
