This advisory announces vulnerabilities in the following Jenkins deliverables:
Jenkins 2.251 and earlier, LTS 2.235.3 and earlier does not escape the tooltip content of help icons. Tooltip values can be contributed by plugins, some of which use user-specified values.
This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
Jenkins 2.252, LTS 2.235.4 escapes the tooltip content of help icons.
Jenkins 2.251 and earlier, LTS 2.235.3 and earlier does not escape the project naming strategy description that is displayed on item creation.
This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by users with Overall/Manage permission.
Jenkins 2.252, LTS 2.235.4 escapes the project naming strategy description.
Jenkins 2.251 and earlier, LTS 2.235.3 and earlier does not escape the remote address of the host starting a build via 'Trigger builds remotely'.
This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by users with Job/Configure permission or knowledge of the Authentication Token.
Jenkins 2.252, LTS 2.235.4 escapes the remote address of the host.
Email Extension Plugin stores an SMTP password in its global configuration file hudson.plugins.emailext.ExtendedEmailPublisher.xml on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration.
While this password is stored encrypted on disk, it is transmitted and displayed in plain text as part of the configuration form by Email Extension Plugin 2.72 and 2.73. This can result in exposure of the password.
Email Extension Plugin 2.74 transmits the SMTP password in its global configuration encrypted and masks it using a password field.
Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check in an HTTP endpoint.
This allows attackers with Overall/Read access to Jenkins to enumerate credentials IDs of credentials stored in Jenkins. Those can be used as part of an attack to capture the credentials using another vulnerability.
An enumeration of credentials IDs in Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.3 requires the appropriate permissions.
Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check in a method implementing form validation.
This allows users with Overall/Read access to Jenkins to connect to an attacker-specified JDBC URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, potentially capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
Additionally, this form validation method does not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.
Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.3 requires POST requests and Job/Configure permission for the affected form validation method.
Yet Another Build Visualizer Plugin 1.11 and earlier does not escape tooltip content.
This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by users with Run/Update permission.
Yet Another Build Visualizer Plugin 1.12 escapes tooltip content.
Flaky Test Handler Plugin 1.0.4 and earlier does not require POST requests for the "Deflake this build" feature, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.
This vulnerability allows attackers to rebuild a project at a previous git revision where the tests were failing.
