Affected packages

• Maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:artifactory: < 3.6.1 → fixed in 3.6.1

Description

Jenkins Artifactory Plugin 3.6.0 and earlier stores Artifactory server passwords in its global configuration file `org.jfrog.hudson.ArtifactoryBuilder.xml` on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration. While the password is stored encrypted on disk since Artifactory Plugin 3.6.0, it is transmitted in plain text as part of the configuration form by Artifactory Plugin 3.6.0 and earlier. This can result in exposure of the password through browser extensions, cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, and similar situations. Artifactory Plugin 3.6.1 transmits the password in its global configuration encrypted.
