Description

Jenkins 2.227 and earlier, LTS 2.204.5 and earlier does not properly escape node labels that are shown in the form validation for label expressions on job configuration pages, resulting in a stored XSS vulnerability exploitable by users able to define node labels.

Solution(s)

  • jenkins-lts-upgrade-2_204_6
  • jenkins-upgrade-2_228

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
