[com.rapid7:jenkinsci-appspider-plugin] Password stored in plain text by Jenkins AppSpider Plugin

AppSpider Plugin 1.0.12 and earlier stores a password unencrypted in its global configuration file com.rapid7.jenkinspider.PostBuildScan.xml on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration.

This password can be viewed by users with access to the Jenkins controller file system.

AppSpider Plugin 1.0.13 stores a password encrypted once its configuration is saved again.
