[SECURITY] Releases are built/executed/released in the context of insecure/untrusted code

See original GitHub issue

CWE-829: Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere

The build files indicate that this project is resolving dependencies over HTTP instead of HTTPS. Any of these artifacts could have been MITM to maliciously compromise them and infect the build artifacts that were produced. Additionally, if any of these JAR files were compromised, any developers using these could continue to be infected past updating to fix this.

https://github.com/SlimeKnights/TinkersConstruct/blob/6cae3cdadcb5063b7286db6cdc7d0619af58cbff/build.gradle#L35-L58

This vulnerability has a CVSS v3.0 Base Score of 8.1/10 https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln-metrics/cvss/v3-calculator?vector=AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

This isn’t just theoretical; POC code exists already to maliciously compromise jar file inflight.

See:

To fix: Update your build.gradle so that artifacts are resolved over HTTPS instead of HTTP.

The forge one should be https, I think it wasn’t available as https back then, thanks for the hint. The others are private repositories, not all of which support https, or built on the same buildserver, using the local repo.
