  • Disclosed: 16.08.2023
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 12:21

Jenkins NodeJS Plugin integrates with Config File Provider Plugin to specify custom NPM settings, including credentials for authentication, in a Npm config file.

NodeJS Plugin 1.6.0 and earlier does not properly mask (i.e., replace with asterisks) credentials specified in the Npm config file in Pipeline build logs.

NodeJS Plugin 1.6.1 masks credentials specified in the Npm config file in Pipeline build logs.
