The CVE-2025-XXXXX vulnerability in Infinispan CLI arises when processing a Base64-encoded Kubernetes secret containing a sensitive password. The decoded password is handled in plaintext and embedded into a command string. If an invalid command is executed, the error message generated may inadvertently include this sensitive information, leading to unintended exposure. This occurs due to insufficient sanitization of error-handling mechanisms, allowing credentials to leak through diagnostic output.
