Jenkins plugins Multiple Vulnerabilities (2024-11-27)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 211917

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:

- util/JSONTokener.java in JSON-lib before 3.1.0 mishandles an unbalanced comment string. (CVE-2024-47855)

- Jenkins Simple Queue Plugin 1.4.4 and earlier does not escape the view name, resulting in a stored cross- site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers with View/Create permission. (CVE-2024-54003)

- Jenkins Filesystem List Parameter Plugin 0.0.14 and earlier does not restrict the path used for the File system objects list Parameter, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to enumerate file names on the Jenkins controller file system. (CVE-2024-54004)

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

Solution

Update Jenkins plugins to the following versions:
- Filesystem List Parameter Plugin to version 0.0.15 or later
- Simple Queue Plugin to version 1.4.5 or later

See vendor advisory for more details.
