     AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:Some/II:All/E:Theoretical/TD:All [2]
   * Vulnerability: Information Disclosure

-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------

This module enables you to to target any malicious software directed at a Web
site, whether it be a spambot, ill-designed search engine bot, or system
crackers. It blocks such access and then logs their attempts.

.... Information Disclosure

The module doesn't sufficiently sanitize log data, allowing usernames and
passwords to get included in its logs.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that an attacker must have a role
with the permission "administer bad behavior".
