Description

Open-iSCSI targetcli-fb through 2.1.52 has weak permissions for /etc/target (and for the backup directory and backup files). An access flaw was found in targetcli, where the `/etc/target` and underneath backup directory/files were world-readable. This flaw allows a local attacker to access potentially sensitive information such as authentication credentials from the /etc/target/saveconfig.json and backup files. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
