Title
Apache Syncope: Nested secrets leak cleartext into audit records readable
Summary
Insufficiently Protected Credentials vulnerability in Apache Syncope.

This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, from 4.0.0-M0 Through 4.0.7, from 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.2. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.8 / 4.1.3, which fix this issue.
