Path traversal vulnerability in Jenkins Fortify Plugin

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published Feb 16, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Oct 27, 2023

Package

maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:fortify (Maven)

Affected versions

< 20.2.35

Patched versions

20.2.35

Description

Jenkins Fortify Plugin 20.2.34 and earlier does not sanitize the appName and appVersion parameters of its Pipeline steps, which are used to write to files inside build directories.

This allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to write or overwrite .xml files on the Jenkins controller file system with content not controllable by the attacker.

Jenkins Fortify Plugin 20.2.35 sanitizes the appName and appVersion parameters of its Pipeline steps when determining the resulting filename.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
