Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from two key components: 1) The database connection logic that includes credentials in error messages during connection failures, and 2) The error handling system that displays these raw error messages to end-users when verbose mode is active. The combination of these functions leads to credential exposure through unhandled exception messages containing database connection details. The patched version (6.2.3) likely added filtering/redaction in these components.
