High CVSS 7.5
CVE-2026-59657
Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information vulnerability in Apache CloudStack with AsyncJob storage in the database. This issue affects Apache CloudStack: from 4.0.0 through 4.20.3.0 and from 4.21.0.0 through 4.22.1.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.20.3.1 or 4.22.1.1 or later, which fixes the issue.
What this means

- Weakness
