Exposure of Sensitive Information in Gradle publish plugin

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 24, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Jan 27, 2023

Package

maven com.gradle.plugin-publish:com.gradle.plugin-publish.gradle.plugin (Maven)

Affected versions

< 0.11.0

Patched versions

0.11.0
maven com.gradle.publish:plugin-publish-plugin (Maven)
< 0.11.0
0.11.0

Description

All versions of com.gradle.plugin-publish before 0.11.0 are vulnerable to Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File. When a plugin author publishes a Gradle plugin while running Gradle with the --info log level flag, the Gradle Logger logs an AWS pre-signed URL. If this build log is publicly visible (as it is in many popular public CI systems like TravisCI) this AWS pre-signed URL would allow a malicious actor to replace a recently uploaded plugin with their own.
