CVE-2026-81705— openssl-encrypt before 1.4.9 Password Cleartext Leak via Debug

Quick assessment

Affected
jahlives openssl_encrypt
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 1.4.9 之前的版本中，当密码通过捆绑的短选项写法（例如 ）或缩写形式的长选项（例如 ）提供时，在其 参数转储中无法正确隐藏（redact）文件密码。该消毒器（sanitizer）仅能识别精确的选项名称、 形式以及以 开头的令牌，因此这些写法会绕过密码隐藏的关键控制点，导致明文密码被写入标准错误输出（stderr）。任何能够访问该输出的人（包括终端滚动缓冲区、合并的 输出、CI 作业日志或 GUI 的持久化调试日志）都可能恢复出该密码。

Vulnerability Title
openssl-encrypt before 1.4.9 Password Cleartext Leak via Debug
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
openssl-encrypt before 1.4.9 fails to redact the file password in its --debug argv dump when the password is supplied via bundled short-option spellings (e.g. -apHunter2) or abbreviated long-option spellings (e.g. --passw). The sanitizer only recognized exact option names, --option=value forms, and tokens starting with -p, so these spellings bypass the redaction chokepoint and the cleartext password is written to stderr. Anyone with access to that output (terminal scrollback, merged 2>&1 output, CI job logs, or the GUI's persistent debug log) can recover the password.
