    Summary: Insecure password handling vulnerability in Strapi

    Details: Storing passwords in a recoverable format in the DOCUMENTATION plugin component of Strapi before 3.6.9 and 4.x before 4.1.5 allows an attacker to access a victim's HTTP request. From this, the attacker can get the victim's cookie, base64 decode it, and obtain a cleartext password, leading to getting API documentation for further API attacks.
