JetBrains Security Bulletin Q1 2019

This bulletin summarizes the security vulnerabilities detected in JetBrains products and remediated in the first quarter of 2019.

These include issues reported by Jonathan Leitschuh potentially exposing a product user or a project’s infrastructure to man-in-the-middle attacks, namely

  • resolving Gradle, Maven, and sbt project artifacts over an unencrypted connection in various projects; and
  • generating project templates in an IDE causing the above-mentioned issue in a user’s project.

We’ve also run extended verification of the secret storage mechanism in our IDEs’ settings, and identified and fixed several cases of cleartext secret storage.

Here’s a summary report that comprises the affected product, the description of each issue, its severity, and the product version containing the fix.
