Plain Text CPAN Credentials

CPAN configuration files can contain plaintext proxy credentials or authenticated repository URLs. Automic Vault currently detects this exposure but does not yet provide a migration or package modification for CPAN.

Local README excerpt

CPAN Radioisotope Detector

This detector reports plaintext CPAN credentials in common per-user CPAN configuration files. It does not currently migrate credentials or modify Perl.

Source: data/radioisotopes/perl/README.md

Caveats

  • We detect common CPAN user configuration files.
  • We report non-empty proxy passwords and URLs with embedded userinfo.
  • We do not currently migrate CPAN configuration into the keychain.
