Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from Mako template files rendering password input fields with raw credential values (e.g., ${sickbeard.WEB_PASSWORD}) instead of applying the 'hide' filter (${sickbeard.WEB_PASSWORD|hide}). The commit diff shows the addition of this filter across multiple configuration pages to mask credentials. Prior to the patch, these templates directly embedded sensitive values into HTTP responses, violating CWE-522. The affected files are all configuration UIs that handled credential display, and the lack of filtering is evident in the pre-patch code.
