Severity: High

Component(s): server

Affected file(s):

  • server/src/main.rs (~lines 198-225)

Problem:
The bootstrap admin plaintext password is written to .admin-credentials in the CWD, with an info! log fallback. The server deploys on Linux so 0o600 works; the residual risk is on-disk plaintext plus the log path.

Recommended fix:
Have the operator supply the password via env/one-time input, or print-once and never persist; remove the log fallback.

Remediation phase: P0

From the 2026-06-05 three-way review (Claude+Gemini+Grok) — see reports/review-2026-06-05/SYNTHESIS-three-way.md (finding H2) and REMEDIATION-PLAN.md (P0).
