EPSS · scored 2026-10-27

A common setup to deploy to gh-pages on every commit via a CI system is to expose a github token to ENV and to use it directly in the auth part of the url. In module versions < 0.9.1 the auth portion of the url is outputted as part of the grunt tasks logging function. If this output is publicly available then the credentials should be considered compromised.

  • GHSA-rrj3-qmh8-72pfgrunt-gh-pages before 0.10.0 may allow unencrypted GitHub credentials to be written to a log file2019-02-18ghsa · osvUS

    Versions of `grunt-gh-pages` prior to 0.10.0 are affected by a vulnerability which may cause unencrypted GitHub credentials to be written to a log file in certain circumstances. In the `grunt-gh-pages` deployment scenario where authentication is performed by injecting a GitHub token directly into the auth portion of the URL, `grunt-gh-pages` will write the token to a log file, unencrypted. ## Recommendation Update to version 0.10.0 or later.
