Pentaho Business Analytics Server - With the Data Lineage feature enabled, the system transmits database passwords in clear text

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.3.0.0, 9.2.0.2 and 8.3.0.25 with the Data Lineage feature enabled transmits database passwords in clear text.

The transmission of sensitive data in clear text allows unauthorized actors with access to the network to sniff and obtain sensitive information that can be later used to gain unauthorized access.
