Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Jenkins dbCharts Plugin versions 0.5.2 and earlier

Description The issue concerns the storage of JDBC connection passwords in the global configuration file on the Jenkins controller. These passwords are stored unencrypted and can be viewed by users with access to the Jenkins controller file system. The configuration file in question is hudson.plugins.dbcharts.DbChartPublisher.xml. This poses a risk as users with access to the file system can obtain the passwords.

Recommendations For Jenkins dbCharts Plugin versions 0.5.2 and earlier, consider restricting access to the Jenkins controller file system to minimize the risk of password exposure until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, limit user access to the hudson.plugins.dbcharts.DbChartPublisher.xml file to prevent unauthorized viewing of the unencrypted JDBC connection passwords.
