medium Nessus Plugin ID 338360

Language:

Synopsis

The integrated development environment installed on the remote host is affected by an information disclosure vulnerability.

Description

The version of JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA installed on the remote host is prior to 2026.1.5. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability:

 - In JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before 2026.1.5 Git credentials were written in plaintext to the IDE log.
 (CVE-2026-75057)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA version 2026.1.5 or later.
