CVE-2025-53657Network attack vector

Credential disclosure via unmasked configuration fields

Published Jul 9, 2025 · Updated Nov 4, 2025

Credential exposure in Jenkins ReadyAPI Functional Testing Plugin 1.11 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to capture secrets. The job configuration form renders configured SLM License Access Keys, client secrets, and passwords without masking their values. Low-privileged Jenkins access that permits viewing the form is required, and the bounded impact is disclosure of configured credentials.
