CVE-2020-2213

CVE-2020-2213: Credentials stored in plain text by Jenkins White Source Plugin

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.

Root Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from handling credentials as plain text in multiple locations. Key evidence includes:

Pre-patch fields like jobApiToken/userKey were declared as String instead of Secret
Configuration methods (configure()) directly stored JSON input without Secret encryption
Getter methods exposed sensitive values as plain Strings
The commit diff shows mass conversion of String->Secret for credential fields
CWE-256 directly maps to plaintext storage in configuration files These functions directly participated in the credential storage flow without proper protection.
