ActiveMQ Artemis (artemis-commons, Maven) versions 2.7.0 up to 2.12.0 are affected. When the management API's resetUsers operation runs, passwords can be stored in plaintext in the Artemis shadow users file, and a local attacker who can read that file can obtain them. Upgrade to version 2.13.0 or later.
