Password Parameter passes masked characters into maven goals

[Jim Arasim]

I have a job using a Password Parameter type (This Build is Parameterized => Add Parameter => Password Parameter), that I reference in "Goals and Options" of a maven build.

This week I found the masked characters ("********") were getting passed through to the underlying java program that uses the password, instead of the intended, actual password (e.g. "password123@").

Has anyone else run into this?

Same problem here.

Have you found a solution?

Hi, same problem with Jenkins ver. 1.596.2, seems a problem related on how the passwords parameters are passed to Maven Job Objects.

This is independent of having the Mask Passwords Plugin or not.
