Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The org.apache.nifi:nifi-single-user-utils package before 1.16 writes login credentials (username and password) to a temporary file that is readable by other users on Unix-like systems. A local user on the same system can read those credentials, so an attacker needs local access to the host. Upgrade to version 1.16 or later.

Written 7 Nov 2026.
