    nvdApiKey is logged in debug mode

    GHSA-qqhq-8r2c-c3f5

    Affected
    • Maven org.owasp:dependency-check-maven >= 9.0.0, < 9.0.6
    Fixed in
    9.0.6· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    The value of nvdApiKey configuration parameter is logged in clear text in debug mode. Details The NVD API key is a kind of secret and should be treated like other secrets when logging in debug mode. Expecting the same behavior as for several password configurations: just print Note that while the NVD API Key is an access token for the NVD API - they are not that sensitive. The only thing an NVD API Token grants is a higher rate limit when making calls to publicly available data. The data available from the NVD API is the same whether you have an API Key or not. PoC The nvdApiKey is configured to use an environment variable; when running mvn -X dependency-check:check the clear value is logged twice. Impact The NVD API key is a kind of secret and should not be exposed. If stolen, an attacker can use this key to obtain already public information.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 9.0.6 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
