CVE-2020-8356
An internal product security audit of LXCO, prior to version 1.2.2, discovered that optional passwords, if specified, for the Syslog and SMTP forwarders are written to an internal LXCO log file in clear text.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.54%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Affected logs are captured in the First Failure Data Capture (FFDC) service log.
