## Description

A flaw was found in IPA, all 4.6.x versions before 4.6.7, all 4.7.x
versions before 4.7.4 and all 4.8.x versions before 4.8.3, in the way that
FreeIPA's batch processing API logged operations. This included passing
user passwords in clear text on FreeIPA masters. Batch processing of
commands with passwords as arguments or options is not performed by default
in FreeIPA but is possible by third-party components. An attacker having
access to system logs on FreeIPA masters could use this flaw to produce log
file content with passwords exposed.
