Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Jenkins Gogs Plugin stored credentials unencrypted in job config.xml files on the Jenkins master where they can be viewed by users with Extended Read permission, or access to the master file system.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Jenkins Gogs Plugin stored SCM credentials in plaintext within job config.xml files on the Jenkins master. Users with Extended Read permission (a feature allowing broader job config visibility) or anyone with filesystem access to the Jenkins master could view these stored credentials in clear text.

MitigationRotate all credentials that may have been exposed through this vulnerability, update the Gogs Plugin to the latest version which encrypts credentials, and review user permissions for Extended Read access on sensitive jobs.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Gogs Plugin version
    Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, locate the Gogs Plugin, and note the version number
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.14 or lower
  2. Locate job config.xml files
    Browse the Jenkins home directory (typically $JENKINS_HOME/jobs/<jobname>/config.xml) for each job configured to use Gogs SCM
    Affected if config.xml files exist for jobs using Gogs as the SCM source
  3. Inspect for plaintext credentials in config.xml
    Open a job config.xml file and search within the <scm> or <credentials> section for unencrypted username/password strings - look for clear text passwords rather than encrypted <secret> entries
    Affected if The config.xml contains visible plaintext passwords or usernames in the Gogs SCM configuration section
  4. Check for Extended Read permission usage
    Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Manage Users and review user permissions, or inspect job configuration files for <useSecurity>true</useSecurity> with Extended Read enabled in matrix-based authorization
    Affected if Extended Read permission is granted to users or groups who should not have visibility into job configuration details

If the Gogs Plugin version is 1.0.14 or lower AND any job config.xml files contain unencrypted credentials in plaintext, the environment is affected by this vulnerability.
