Jenkins Fortify Plugin missing permission check

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published Aug 22, 2023 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Nov 9, 2023

Package

maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:fortify (Maven)

Affected versions

<= 22.1.38

Patched versions

22.2.39

Description

Jenkins Fortify Plugin 22.1.38 and earlier does not perform permission checks in several HTTP endpoints.

This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.

Additionally, these HTTP endpoints do not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.

Fortify Plugin 22.2.39 requires POST requests and the appropriate permissions for the affected HTTP endpoints.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
