high Nessus Plugin ID 339343

Synopsis

The instance of JetBrains TeamCity installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of JetBrains TeamCity installed on the remote host is prior to 2021.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- In JetBrains TeamCity before 2021.1, information disclosure via the Docker Registry connection dialog is possible. (CVE-2021-43196)

- In JetBrains TeamCity before 2021.1, an insecure key generation mechanism for encrypted properties was used. (CVE-2021-37546)

- In JetBrains TeamCity before 2021.1, passwords in cleartext sometimes could be stored in VCS.
(CVE-2021-37548)

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

Solution

Upgrade to JetBrains TeamCity version 2021.1 or later.
