Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.51%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Apache Geode versions up to 1.12.4 and 1.13.4 are vulnerable to a log file redaction of sensitive information flaw when using values that begin with characters other than letters or numbers for passwords and security properties with the prefix "sysprop-", "javax.net.ssl", or "security-". This issue is fixed by overhauling the log file redaction in Apache Geode versions 1.12.5, 1.13.5, and 1.14.0.
