14
FAUCET Score

CVE-2020-15095 describes an information exposure vulnerability in npm CLI versions prior to 6.14.6, where sensitive password information embedded in URLs is printed to standard output and log files. This affects various distributions of npm, including those from Fedora and openSUSE. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 4.4 (MEDIUM), indicating a local attack vector with high attack complexity, requiring user interaction, and resulting in high confidentiality impact. While the integrity and availability are not affected, the exposure of credentials poses a significant risk. There is no evidence of active exploitation, and no exploit intelligence (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) is available. The vulnerability has received minimal community discussion and media coverage, suggesting low public awareness and a lack of widespread attention.
