Description

Jenkins 2.286 and earlier, LTS 2.277.1 and earlier does not properly check that a newly created view has an allowed name, allowing attackers with View/Create permission to create views with invalid or already-used names.

Solution(s)

  • jenkins-lts-upgrade-2_277_2
  • jenkins-upgrade-2_287

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.
