CVE-2025-53673
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 · uneditedJenkins Sensedia Api Platform tools Plugin 1.0 stores the Sensedia API Manager integration token unencrypted in its global configuration file on the Jenkins controller, where it can be viewed by users with access to the Jenkins controller 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 confidenceThe Jenkins Sensedia Api Platform tools Plugin version 1.0 stores the Sensedia API Manager integration token in plaintext within its global configuration file on the Jenkins controller. Users with access to the Jenkins controller file system can read the unencrypted token directly from the configuration file.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify plugin installation and versionNavigate to Manage Jenkins > Plugins > Installed Plugins and look for 'Sensedia Api Platform Tools' in the list. Confirm the version column shows exactly version 1.0Affected if The plugin is installed at version 1.0
-
Locate plugin configuration fileIn the Jenkins controller filesystem, look for the Sensedia Api Platform Tools plugin directory under $JENKINS_HOME/plugins/ and check for any configuration XML or properties files that store plugin settingsAffected if A configuration file exists for this plugin in the Jenkins home directory
-
Inspect configuration for plaintext tokenOpen the plugin's configuration file and search for fields named 'token', 'apiToken', 'integrationToken', or similar. View the raw content to see if the token value appears in plaintext rather than encrypted or maskedAffected if A Sensedia API Manager token appears in plaintext within the configuration file content
-
Check configuration file permissionsUse filesystem commands (ls -la or icacls) to inspect permissions on the plugin configuration file. Verify which system users or groups have read access to the fileAffected if The configuration file is readable by users other than the Jenkins service account
A user is affected if the Sensedia Api Platform Tools plugin version 1.0 is installed and a plaintext Sensedia API Manager token is found in its configuration file.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataRotate any exposed Sensedia API Manager tokens immediately, as they may have been compromised. Review and restrict filesystem permissions on Jenkins configuration directories. Upgrade to a patched version of the plugin when available.
