Jenkins Git Plugin Credential Leakage Vulnerability

CVE-2017-1000092 · LOW Severity

AV:N/AC:H/AU:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

Git Plugin connects to a user-specified Git repository as part of form validation. An attacker with no direct access to Jenkins but able to guess at a username/password credentials ID could trick a developer with job configuration permissions into following a link with a maliciously crafted Jenkins URL which would result in the Jenkins Git client sending the username and password to an attacker-controlled server.
