Amazon::Credentials stores credentials in an obfuscated form to prevent access to the secrets from a data dump of the object.
Before version 1.3.0, the secrets were encrypted using a 64-bit key that was generated using the built-in rand function, which is predictable and unsuitable for cryptography.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
| Vendor | Product | Default status | Versions | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BIGFOOT | Amazon::Credentials | unaffected |
