Jenkins plugins Multiple Vulnerabilities (2023-07-26)

high Nessus Plugin ID 178959

Language:

Synopsis

An application running on a remote web server host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities

Description

According to their self-reported version numbers, the version of Jenkins plugins running on the remote web server are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - Always-incorrect control flow implementation in Jenkins Gradle Plugin 2.8 may result in credentials not being masked (i.e., replaced with asterisks) in the build log in some circumstances. (CVE-2023-39152)

 - A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Jenkins GitLab Authentication Plugin 1.17.1 and earlier allows attackers to trick users into logging in to the attacker's account. (CVE-2023-39153)

 - Incorrect permission checks in Jenkins Qualys Web App Scanning Connector Plugin 2.0.10 and earlier allow attackers with global Item/Configure permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker- specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
 (CVE-2023-39154)

 - Jenkins Chef Identity Plugin 2.0.3 and earlier does not mask the user.pem key form field, increasing the potential for attackers to observe and capture it. (CVE-2023-39155)

 - A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Jenkins Bazaar Plugin 1.22 and earlier allows attackers to delete previously created Bazaar SCM tags. (CVE-2023-39156)

 - Medium ServiceNow DevOps Plugin 1.38.0 and earlier does not perform a permission check in a method implementing form validation. 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, this form validation method does not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability. ServiceNow DevOps Plugin 1.38.1 requires POST requests and Overall/Administer permission for the affected form validation method. (CVE-2023-3414, CVE-2023-3442)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

 - Bazaar Plugin: See vendor advisory
 - Chef Identity Plugin: See vendor advisory
