Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stemmed from handling credentials as plain text Strings rather than Jenkins' Secret type. Key evidence comes from the patch diff showing:

  1. Password field type changed from String to Secret
  2. getPassword() switched from returning raw String to Secret.getEncryptedValue()
  3. Password usage in HTTP queries (invoke method) changed to use Secret.getPlainText()
  4. Constructor and setters modified to use Secret.fromString() These changes confirm the pre-patch versions directly handled cleartext credentials in storage (config.xml) and during HTTP transmission.
