Overview

org.apache.maven.scm:maven-scm-providers-git is a SCM Provider implementation for Git

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure due to improper handling of passwords in different components. When a git password contains special characters, a discrepancy in encoding methods between the URI class and URLEncode.encode can cause the password masking to fail in the JGit provider, leading to the password being logged in a URI-encoded but otherwise clear format. In another instance, if a ls-remote command fails in the Gitexe provider, an exception is thrown containing the full fetch URL, which includes the URI-encoded password without it being masked.
