Jenx

Tool to decrypt Hudson/Jenkins usernames and passwords

Why?

Why not?

Install

This script needs Python 3.x. Get it here: Python website. Alternatively, you can use Conda (it’s much cooler): Anaconda website

Install Dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

1. Take the necessary files from your Hudson/Jenkins installation.

   You need three files:

   • credentials.xml
   • hudson.util.Secret
   • master.key

   You can find the file credentials.xml in $JENKINS_HOME and hudson.util.Secret and master.key in $JENKINS_HOME/secrets

2. Place the files in a folder

3. Execute script

   python jenx.py /path/to/your/folder

   or

   python jenx.py

   The second one assumes the files are in the same directory with the script.

4. Read the output. It should contain the usernames and passwords.

Limitations

Only works with credentials 1.x SystemCredentialsProvider plugin.

What’s in the name?

It’s a portmanteau of Jenkins and jinx (curse).
