Jenkins < 1.565.3 / 1.586 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 83956

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a job scheduling and management system that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote web server hosts a version of Jenkins (open source) that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists due to not setting the 'Secure' flag for session cookies. This results in the web browser transmitting the cookie in cleartext, allowing a man-in-the-middle attacker to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2014-9634)

- A security bypass vulnerability exists due to the 'HttpOnly' attribute for session cookies not being used in 'main/java/hudson/WebAppMain.java'. This allows a remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2014-9635)

Solution

Upgrade to Jenkins 1.565.3 / 1.586 or later.
