Weakness Type

Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information

The application stores sensitive information in cleartext within a resource that might be accessible to another control sphere.

Even if the information is encoded in a way that is not human-readable, certain techniques could determine which encoding is being used, then decode the information.
