CVE-2026-25211
Description
A security issue was identified in the Llama Stack server when PGVector is used as a vector store provider. During initialization, the server logs print the PGVector database password in clear text. This occurs due to insufficient redaction of sensitive configuration fields. As a result, anyone with access to the application logs can retrieve database credentials, increasing the risk of unauthorized database access.
Statement
The vulnerability has a Low impact.The flaw involves information exposure through log files in the Llama Stack server when PGVector is configured, where database passwords are logged in plaintext.
Mitigation
To mitigate this issue, ensure strict access controls are implemented for server and application logs associated with Llama Stack deployments. Restrict log file and directory access to authorized personnel only to prevent unauthorized disclosure of sensitive database credentials. Consider integrating log redaction or encryption solutions if supported by your logging infrastructure for enhanced data protection.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Read Application Data
Logging sensitive user data, full path names, or system information often provides attackers with an additional, less-protected path to acquiring the information.
