Summary
@perfood/couch-auth may expose session tokens, passwords
Details

Session tokens and passwords in couch-auth 0.21.2 are stored in JavaScript objects and remain in memory without explicit clearing in src/user.ts lines 700-707. This creates a window of opportunity for sensitive data extraction through memory dumps, debugging tools, or other memory access techniques, potentially leading to session hijacking.

Details

UpSignOn for Windows before 7.19.0 contains a sensitive data exposure vulnerability that allows local attackers to recover the master password and decrypt vault contents by reading a retained backup key from the process memory of UpSignOn.exe, even after the vault has been re-locked. Attackers can extract the backup key from process memory to decrypt the encrypted master password backup stored in v6-vault1.DATA.txt, then use the recovered master password to decrypt the main vault and export all password manager entries in cleartext.

The mobile application insecurely handles information stored within memory. By performing a memory dump on the application after a user has logged out and terminated it, Wi-Fi credentials sent during the pairing process, JWTs used for authentication, and other sensitive details can be retrieved. As a result, an attacker with physical access to the device of a victim can retrieve this information and gain unauthorized access to their home Wi-Fi network and Meatmeet account.
