      Issue:
      Under `Manage Jenkins > Configure system` if you leave the Server authentication token blank(which you theoretically can do because it says: SonarQube authentication token. Mandatory when anonymous access is disabled) it will cause builds which have sonar configured to fail in a very interesting way. The logs show a Null pointer with this stacktrace:

      2018-09-27_08:09:48.63940 SEVERE: #2389 failed to build and we don't even have a listener
2018-09-27_08:09:48.63940 java.lang.NullPointerException

      But does not show a build log which makes it not very obvious about what happened(which is why this is "high")

      Resolution:
      Following the code I am looking at this line for the cause:
      https://github.com/jenkinsci/sonarqube-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/hudson/plugins/sonar/SonarBuildWrapper.java#L149

      This means either there is a need to check for null there and then not grab the data or the configuration item needs to be required under Manage Jenkins
