CVE-2020-2213

Credentials stored in plain text by Jenkins White Source Plugin

Impact

White Source Plugin prior to version 20.8.1 stores credentials in plain text as part of its global configuration file `org.whitesource.jenkins.pipeline.WhiteSourcePipelineStep.xml` and job config.xml files on the Jenkins controller. These credentials could be viewed by users with Extended Read permission (in the case of job config.xml files) or access to the Jenkins controller file system. Version 20.8.1 contains a patch for the issue.
