Nothing is private on blockchain
Summary
Everything on the blockchain is public, if you don't want the world to see it, don't put it on the chain.
Vulnerability Details
The contract stores the password, a sensitive piece of data that should never be stored on the chain. And if you have to, encrypt it off-chain and store the encrypted version.
Impact
This is a high-risk issue that can lead to the transfer of ownership, the theft of tokens, and much more.
Tools Used
Recommendations
Avoid putting sensitive data on the chain whenever possible.
Use a good encryption algorithm to protect your sensitive data.
