Jenkins Accessible without Credentials

high Nessus Plugin ID 71215

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a job scheduling / management system that is accessible without authentication.

Description

The remote web server hosts Jenkins, a job scheduling / management system and a drop-in replacement for Hudson. By allowing unauthenticated access to the application, anyone may be able to configure Jenkins and jobs, and perform builds.

Additionally, this script checks for unauthenticated access to '/scripts' as anyone with access to the script console can run arbitrary Groovy scripts on the remote host.

Solution

Refer to the Jenkins security guide for information on restricting access to Jenkins.
