Cockpit Software: Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Source Code
CVE-2024-1272 is a high-severity inclusion of sensitive information in source code vulnerability in Cockpit Software from TNB Mobile Solutions, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user.

There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.38% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Cockpit Software to v0.251.1 or 0.251.1, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Update Cockpit to 0.251.1 or a later version.
