Description

Password Safe 1.7(1) leaves cleartext passwords in memory when a user copies the password to the clipboard and minimizes Password Safe with the "Clear the password when minimized" and "Lock password database on minimize and prompt on restore" options enabled, which could allow an attacker with access to the memory (e.g. an administrator) to read the passwords.
