Java vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

CVE-2023-41944 affects the Jenkins AWS CodeCommit Trigger Plugin versions 3.0.12 and earlier. The vulnerability was discovered by Kevin Guerroudj from CloudBees, Inc. and was publicly disclosed on September 6, 2023 (Jenkins Advisory).

Technical details

The vulnerability is an HTML injection vulnerability that occurs when the plugin fails to escape the queue name parameter passed to a form validation URL while rendering an error message. The severity is rated as Medium according to CVSS v3.1 with a base score of 6.1 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) (NVD).

Impact

The vulnerability results in an HTML injection vulnerability. However, since Jenkins 2.275 and LTS 2.263.2, a security hardening for form validation responses prevents JavaScript execution, which means no scripts can be injected (Jenkins Advisory).

Mitigation and workarounds

As of the advisory publication date, there is no fix available for this vulnerability in the AWS CodeCommit Trigger Plugin (Jenkins Advisory). However, the impact is partially mitigated by Jenkins' security hardening for form validation responses introduced in versions 2.275 and LTS 2.263.2, which prevents JavaScript execution.
