Root Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from debug-mode logging of the nvdApiKey without redaction. Configuration initialization (Settings.initialize) and NVD API client setup (NvdApiClient.configure) are prime candidates because:

The advisory explicitly mentions configuration parameter logging in debug mode
The PoC shows the key is logged during Maven execution (-X flag enables debug)
Similar security-sensitive values like passwords are properly masked, indicating a missing redaction pattern specifically for nvdApiKey
These components are common across all affected packages (Maven/CLI/Ant)
