Jenkins Credentials Binding Plugin Jenkins 1.17 is affected by: CWE-257: Storing Passwords in a Recoverable Format. The impact is: Authenticated users can recover credentials. The component is: config-variables.jelly line #30 (passwordVariable). The attack vector is: Attacker creates and executes a Jenkins job.

Jenkins Credentials Binding Plugin 1.14 and earlier masks passwords it provides to build processes in their build logs. Jenkins however transforms provided password values, e.g. replacing environment variable references, which could result in values different from but similar to configured passwords being provided to the build. Those values are not subject to masking, and could allow unauthorized users to recover the original password.
