Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
TeamPass version 2.1.27 and earlier contains a Storing Passwords in a Recoverable Format vulnerability in Shared password vaults that can result in all shared passwords are recoverable server side. This attack appears to be exploitable via any vulnerability that can bypass authentication or role assignment and can lead to shared password leakage.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

TeamPass versions 2.1.27 and earlier store shared passwords in a recoverable (likely plaintext or weakly encrypted) format within the shared password vaults. When combined with any vulnerability that bypasses authentication or role assignment checks, an attacker can access and recover all shared passwords stored on the server.

MitigationUpgrade TeamPass to a version beyond 2.1.27 that implements proper password encryption. Additionally, identify and remediate the authentication/role bypass vector that enables access to the recoverable passwords, and consider rotating exposed shared credentials as a precautionary measure.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed TeamPass version
    Locate the version file or configuration entry in the TeamPass installation directory or database. Common locations include a version.php file, a config file, or a version field in the database settings table.
    Affected if The installed version is 2.1.27.0 or any earlier version (e.g., 2.1.26, 2.1.25, etc.)
  2. Confirm presence of shared passwords
    Query the database or inspect the shared password vault feature to determine if any shared passwords are stored in the system. In TeamPass, shared passwords are typically stored in a dedicated table (often named something like 'shared_secrets' or 'shared_passwords').
    Affected if The system contains any shared passwords in the shared vault feature.

The environment is affected if running TeamPass version 2.1.27.0 or earlier AND the system contains shared passwords in the vault, as these credentials are stored in a recoverable weak format.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.

Check your environment

Paste your version and any relevant configuration and it will be compared against the affected criteria above. Do not include secrets or credentials.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 2.1.27.0
Interim mitigation

Upgrade TeamPass to a version beyond 2.1.27 that implements proper password encryption. Additionally, identify and remediate the authentication/role bypass vector that enables access to the recoverable passwords, and consider rotating exposed shared credentials as a precautionary measure.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Teampass 2.1.27.1 or later stable release
