Description
The issue is related to missing encryption of sensitive data. Specifically, HTTP URLs in the lockfile cause unencrypted authentication data to be sent over the network.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 1.17.3, update to version 1.17.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of HTTP URLs in the lockfile to minimize the risk of sending unencrypted authentication data over the network.
