Jenkins LTS < 2.277.2 / Jenkins weekly < 2.287 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 148418

Synopsis

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

Description

According to its its self-reported version number, the version of Jenkins running on the remote web server is Jenkins LTS prior to 2.277.2 or Jenkins weekly prior to 2.287. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Jenkins 2.286 and earlier, LTS 2.277.1 and earlier does not validate the type of object created after loading the data submitted to the `config.xml` REST API endpoint of a node, allowing attackers with Computer/Configure permission to replace a node with one of a different type. (CVE-2021-21639)

- Jenkins 2.286 and earlier, LTS 2.277.1 and earlier does not properly check that a newly created view has an allowed name, allowing attackers with View/Create permission to create views with invalid or already- used names. (CVE-2021-21640)

- A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Jenkins promoted builds Plugin 3.9 and earlier allows attackers to to promote builds. (CVE-2021-21641)
- Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in Micro Focus Application Automation Tools Plugin - Jenkins plugin. The vulnerability affects version 6.7 and earlier versions. The vulnerability could allow unconditionally disabling of SSL/TLS certificates. (CVE-2021-22511)
- Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Micro Focus Application Automation Tools Plugin - Jenkins plugin. The vulnerability affects version 6.7 and earlier versions. The vulnerability could allow form validation without permission checks. (CVE-2021-22512)
- Missing Authorization vulnerability in Micro Focus Application Automation Tools Plugin - Jenkins plugin. The vulnerability affects version 6.7 and earlier versions. The vulnerability could allow access without permission checks. (CVE-2021-22513)

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

Solution

Upgrade Jenkins weekly to version 2.287 or later or Jenkins LTS to version 2.277.2 or later
