CVE-2024-28156: 
Java vulnerability analysis and mitigation

CVE-2024-28156 is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Jenkins Build Monitor View Plugin versions 1.14-860.vd06ef2568b_3f and earlier. The vulnerability was discovered by Daniel Beck from CloudBees, Inc. and was publicly disclosed on March 6, 2024. The issue affects the Build Monitor View Plugin, a Jenkins plugin that provides monitoring capabilities for build statuses (Jenkins Advisory, NVD).

The vulnerability stems from the plugin's failure to properly escape Build Monitor View names, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. The issue has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.4 (Medium) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N (NVD).

The vulnerability allows attackers with the ability to configure Build Monitor Views to execute stored cross-site scripting attacks. This could potentially lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information, session hijacking, or other malicious actions within the context of the Jenkins application (Jenkins Advisory).

The vulnerability is exploitable by attackers who have permissions to configure Build Monitor Views in the Jenkins environment. The attack requires low attack complexity but does need privileged access and user interaction to be successful (NVD).

As of the advisory's publication date, there is no fix available for this vulnerability. Users are advised to carefully restrict access to Build Monitor View configuration capabilities and monitor for potential exploitation attempts (Jenkins Advisory).
