Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Storage of Sensitive Information due to the insecure storage of sensitive information in the archetype-settings.xml file. An attacker can access sensitive data, such as credentials, by obtaining the published artifact that inadvertently includes this file.
Note:
This is only exploitable if the developer runs mvn verify again without a mvn clean, leading to the inclusion of sensitive files in the final artifact.
