Java vulnerability analysis and mitigation
Overview
CVE-2022-25183 is a high severity vulnerability affecting the Jenkins Pipeline: Deprecated Groovy Libraries Plugin versions 552.vd9cc05b8a2e1 and earlier. The vulnerability was discovered by Devin Nusbaum of CloudBees, Inc. and disclosed on February 15, 2022 (Jenkins Advisory).
Technical details
The vulnerability exists because the plugin uses the names of Pipeline libraries to create cache directories without any sanitization. The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H (NVD).
Impact
This vulnerability allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins controller JVM using specially crafted library names if a global Pipeline library configured to use caching already exists (Jenkins Advisory).
Mitigation and workarounds
The vulnerability was fixed in Pipeline: Deprecated Groovy Libraries Plugin version 561.va_ce0de3c2d69, which sanitizes the names of Pipeline libraries when creating library cache directories. Users are advised to upgrade to this version or later (Jenkins Advisory).
