CVE-2020-8632 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The SLES security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for SLES:15.1.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cloud-init-doc package and not the cloud-init-doc package as distributed by SLES.
In cloud-init through 19.4, rand_user_password in cloudinit/config/cc_set_passwords.py has a small default pwlen value, which makes it easier for attackers to guess passwords.
