Jenkins GitHub Pull Request Builder Plugin
GitHub Pull Request Builder Plugin stored the webhook secret shared between Jenkins and GitHub in plain text. This allowed users with Jenkins controller local file system access and Jenkins administrators to retrieve the stored password. The latter could result in exposure of the passwords through browser extensions, cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, and similar situations. GitHub Pull Request Builder Plugin 1.32.1 and newer stores the webhook secret encrypted on disk.
