Command Centre Server: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File
CVE-2026-25193 is a high-severity insertion of sensitive information into log file vulnerability in Command Centre Server from Gallagher, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.6 out of 10. It can be exploited with local access to the system by an unauthenticated attacker, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. The record lists version 9.40.2575 (MR2) as the first without the flaw, so updating Command Centre Server to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.14% 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 Command Centre Server to 9.40.2575 (MR2) or a later version.
- Update Active Directory Sync to 9.10.05 or a later version.
- Update Cardholder Sync Utility to 9.30.104 or a later version.
- Read the advisory on security.gallagher.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.

Official description
Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File (CWE-532) in some Command Centre Service installers could lead to Service Account credentials exposure. Mitigating Factor: Only sites that install Command Centre Services with a custom Service Account (not the default Network Service account) are potentially impacted. Mitigation: For sites concerned about exposure, the recommended action is to change the Service Account password. They can also delete any installer log files, usually found in %programdata%\Gallagher\Command Centre.
