CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe vulnerability allows an attacker with code execution capabilities in the build environment of Black Duck blackduck-c-cpp versions 1.0.17 to 3.0.6 to access the Black Duck API token through inherited environment variables. This exposure can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information and services. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize immediate token rotation and upgrade to mitigate potential risks.
Original NVD Description
Invocation of Process Using Visible Sensitive Information in Black Duck blackduck-c-cpp 1.0.17 through 3.0.6 allows an actor able to execute code within the scanned project's build to obtain the Black Duck API token via the ambient process environment, which is inherited by subprocesses launched during build capture and signature scanning. This applies only where the token is supplied through the BLACKDUCK_API_TOKEN or BD_HUB_TOKEN environment variable. Upgrading does not remediate prior disclosure; any token supplied to an affected version through an environment variable should be rotated.
