An issue was discovered in the C AMQP client library (aka rabbitmq-c) through 0.13.0 for RabbitMQ. Credentials can only be entered on the command line (e.g., for amqp-publish or amqp-consume) and are thus visible to local attackers by listing a process and its arguments.

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 7e9cc7fd-6b3e-46c5-ad6d-409d90d41bbf advisory.

    hadmut reports:
    This C library includes 2 command-line tools that can take                     credentials as command-line options. The credentials are exposed                     as plain-text in the process list. This could allow an attacker                     with access to the process list to see the credentials.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
