Description

Jenkins 2.213 and earlier, LTS 2.204.1 and earlier improperly reuses encryption key parameters in the Inbound TCP Agent Protocol/3, allowing unauthorized attackers with knowledge of agent names to obtain the connection secrets for those agents, which can be used to connect to Jenkins, impersonating those agents.

Solution(s)

  • jenkins-lts-upgrade-2_204_2
  • jenkins-upgrade-2_219
