Subject: [SECURITY] Plain text password in Finjan
 Appliance 5100/8100 NG backup file

Plain text password in backup file ( Finjan Appliance 5100/8100 NG)
The Version 8.3.5 is affected.

In the new console function backup and restore the passwords are saved as plain text. 

The Finjan Appliance uses a Firebird database. The backup saves the database as text file. 
Samba and FTP passwords can be found in the text file. 

Example file ps.fdb.bak (user: testuser password: test1234):
-----------------------------------------------------------

.
<archive location="//test/temp" method="SAMBA" user="test/testuser" password="test1234"/><archive_fields>
.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The file ps.fdb.bak can be found in the archive backup_YYYY_MM_DD_hh_mm_ss.tar.
