What is CVE-2020-2181?

The Jenkins Credentials Binding Plugin versions 1.22 and earlier expose sensitive credentials in build logs by failing to mask them with asterisks. This issue arises when the build does not include any steps, allowing secrets to be displayed in plain text within the logging output. As a result, this vulnerability can potentially lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information stored in Jenkins, underscoring the need for prompt updates and enhanced logging security measures.
