High severity GitHub Reviewed Published Feb 16, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Dec 22, 2023

Package

maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins.workflow:workflow-cps (Maven)

Affected versions

>= 2646.v6ed3b5b01ff1, < 2656.vf7a

Description

Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Plugin prior to 2656.vf7a_e7b_75a_457, 2.94.1, and 2.92.1 uses the same checkout directories for distinct SCMs when reading the script file (typically Jenkinsfile) for Pipelines, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to invoke arbitrary OS commands on the controller through crafted SCM contents.

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.
