NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream fwupd-plugin-flashrom package and not the fwupd-plugin-flashrom package as distributed by RHEL.

When creating an OPERATOR user account on the BMC, the redfish plugin saved the auto-generated password to /etc/fwupd/redfish.conf without proper restriction, allowing any user on the system to read the same configuration file.
