CVE-2021-27925
When using the View Engine and Auditing is enabled, a crash condition can (depending on a race condition) cause an internal user with administrator privileges, @ns_server, to have its credentials leaked in cleartext in the ns_server.info.log file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.53%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
