CVE-2013-6372: Weak Encryption
First published: Wed Nov 20 2013(Updated: )
Kohsuke Kawaguchi reports: Insecure storage of passwords in Subversion plugin. Description Just noticed, that ssh-key passphrases in <JOB>/subversion.credentials are only coded in base64 an can easily be decoded. maybe this is fixed already. My setup is old and grown over time. Although i am running 1.500 the config-files may be old. i did run the "re-keying" process, as jenkins told me to do. Nevertheless, passphrases are still stored in base64 This was originally reported by Lennart Starr
