According to their self-reported version numbers, the version of Jenkins plugins running on the remote web server are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - High Folders Plugin 6.846.v23698686f0f6 and earlier does not require POST requests for an HTTP endpoint,     resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability. This vulnerability allows attackers to     copy an item, which could potentially automatically approve unsandboxed scripts and allow the execution of     unsafe scripts. An improvement added in Script Security Plugin 1265.va_fb_290b_4b_d34 and     1251.1253.v4e638b_e3b_221 prevents automatic approval of unsandboxed scripts when administrators copy     jobs, significantly reducing the impact of this vulnerability. Folders Plugin 6.848.ve3b_fd7839a_81     requires POST requests for the affected HTTP endpoint. (CVE-2023-40336)

  - Medium Folders Plugin 6.846.v23698686f0f6 and earlier does not require POST requests for an HTTP endpoint,     resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability. This vulnerability allows attackers to     copy a view inside a folder. Folders Plugin 6.848.ve3b_fd7839a_81 requires POST requests for the affected     HTTP endpoint. (CVE-2023-40337)

  - Medium Folders Plugin displays an error message when attempting to access the Scan Organization Folder Log     if no logs are available. In Folders Plugin 6.846.v23698686f0f6 and earlier, this error message includes     the absolute path of a log file, exposing information about the Jenkins controller file system. Folders     Plugin 6.848.ve3b_fd7839a_81 does not display the absolute path of a log file in the error message.
    (CVE-2023-40338)

  - Medium Config File Provider Plugin 952.va_544a_6234b_46 and earlier does not mask (i.e., replace with     asterisks) credentials specified in configuration files when they're written to the build log. Config File     Provider Plugin 953.v0432a_802e4d2 masks credentials configured in configuration files if they appear in     the build log. (CVE-2023-40339)

  - Medium NodeJS Plugin integrates with Config File Provider Plugin to specify custom NPM settings, including     credentials for authentication, in a Npm config file. NodeJS Plugin 1.6.0 and earlier does not properly     mask (i.e., replace with asterisks) credentials specified in the Npm config file in Pipeline build logs.
    NodeJS Plugin 1.6.0.1 masks credentials specified in the Npm config file in Pipeline build logs.
    (CVE-2023-40340)

  - Medium Blue Ocean Plugin 1.27.5 and earlier does not require POST requests for an HTTP endpoint, resulting     in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability. This vulnerability allows attackers to connect to an     attacker-specified URL, capturing GitHub credentials associated with an attacker-specified job. This issue     is due to an incomplete fix of SECURITY-2502. Blue Ocean Plugin 1.27.5.1 uses the configured SCM URL,     instead of a user-specified URL provided as a parameter to the HTTP endpoint. (CVE-2023-40341)

  - Medium Fortify Plugin 22.1.38 and earlier does not perform permission checks in several HTTP endpoints.
    This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-     specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
    Additionally, these HTTP endpoints do not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery     (CSRF) vulnerability. Fortify Plugin 22.2.39 requires POST requests and the appropriate permissions for     the affected HTTP endpoints. (CVE-2023-4301, CVE-2023-4302)

  - Medium Fortify Plugin 22.1.38 and earlier does not escape the error message for a form validation method.
    This results in an HTML injection vulnerability. Since Jenkins 2.275 and LTS 2.263.2, a security hardening     for form validation responses prevents JavaScript execution, so no scripts can be injected. Fortify Plugin     22.2.39 removes HTML tags from the error message. (CVE-2023-4303)

  - High Flaky Test Handler Plugin 1.2.2 and earlier does not escape JUnit test contents when showing them on     the Jenkins UI. This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers     able to control JUnit report file contents. Flaky Test Handler Plugin 1.2.3 escapes JUnit test contents     when showing them on the Jenkins UI. (CVE-2023-40342)

  - Low Tuleap Authentication Plugin 1.1.20 and earlier does not use a constant-time comparison when checking     whether two authentication tokens are equal. This could potentially allow attackers to use statistical     methods to obtain a valid authentication token. Tuleap Authentication Plugin 1.1.21 uses a constant-time     comparison when validating authentication tokens. (CVE-2023-40343)

  - Medium Delphix Plugin 3.0.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check in an HTTP endpoint. This     allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to enumerate credentials IDs of credentials stored in     Jenkins. Those can be used as part of an attack to capture the credentials using another vulnerability. An     enumeration of credentials IDs in Delphix Plugin 3.0.3 requires the appropriate permissions.
    (CVE-2023-40344)

  - Medium Delphix Plugin 3.0.2 and earlier does not set the appropriate context for credentials lookup,     allowing the use of System-scoped credentials otherwise reserved for the global configuration. This allows     attackers with Overall/Read permission to access and capture credentials they are not entitled to. Delphix     Plugin 3.0.3 defines the appropriate context for credentials lookup. (CVE-2023-40345)

  - High Shortcut Job Plugin 0.4 and earlier does not escape the shortcut redirection URL. This results in a     stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers able to configure shortcut jobs.
    Shortcut Job Plugin 0.5 escapes the shortcut redirection URL. (CVE-2023-40346)

  - Medium Maven Artifact ChoiceListProvider (Nexus) Plugin 1.14 and earlier does not set the appropriate     context for credentials lookup, allowing the use of System-scoped credentials otherwise reserved for the     global configuration. This allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to access and capture     credentials they are not entitled to. As of publication of this advisory, there is no fix. Learn why we     announce this. (CVE-2023-40347)

  - Medium Gogs Plugin provides a webhook endpoint at /gogs-webhook that can be used to trigger builds of     jobs. In Gogs Plugin 1.0.15 and earlier, an option to specify a Gogs secret for this webhook is provided,     but not enabled by default. This allows unauthenticated attackers to trigger builds of jobs corresponding     to the attacker-specified job name. Additionally, the output of the webhook endpoint includes whether a     job corresponding to the attacker-specified job name exists, even if the attacker has no permission to     access it. As of publication of this advisory, there is no fix. Learn why we announce this.
    (CVE-2023-40348, CVE-2023-40349)

  - High Docker Swarm Plugin processes Docker responses to generate the Docker Swarm Dashboard view. Docker     Swarm Plugin 1.11 and earlier does not escape values returned from Docker before inserting them into the     Docker Swarm Dashboard view. This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable     by attackers able to control responses from Docker. As of publication of this advisory, there is no fix.
    Learn why we announce this. (CVE-2023-40350)

  - Medium Favorite View Plugin 5.v77a_37f62782d and earlier does not require POST requests for an HTTP     endpoint, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability. This vulnerability allows     attackers to add or remove views from another user's favorite views tab bar. As of publication of this     advisory, there is no fix. Learn why we announce this. (CVE-2023-40351)
