However, since the default URI is not using https, it is vulnerable to a MiTM and the Gradle executable is not safe. The severity of this issue is high due to the fact that the build scripts immediately start a build after Gradle has been fetched. Developers who are concerned about this issue should install version 6.1.2 or higher of Cordova-Android. If developers are unable to install the latest version, this vulnerability can easily be mitigated by setting the CORDOVA_ANDROID_GRADLE_DISTRIBUTION_URL environment variable to https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip" } ] }, "problemtype" : { "problemtype_data" : [ { "description" : [ { "lang" : "eng", "value" : "Man-in-the-Middle vulnerability" } ] } ] }, "references" : { "reference_data" : [ { "name" : "https://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2017/01/27/android-612.html", "refsource" : "MISC", "url" : "https://cordova.apache.org/announcements/2017/01/27/android-612.html" }, { "name" : "95838", "refsource" : "BID", "url" : "http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/95838" } ] } }
