QID 995806

Date Published: 2023-11-02

QID 995806: Java (Maven) Security Update for io.jenkins.plugins:warnings-ng (GHSA-whf8-3h58-2w9f)

Jenkins Warnings Next Generation Plugin has a form validation HTTP endpoint used to validate a Groovy script through compilation, which was not subject to sandbox protection. The endpoint checked for the Overall/RunScripts permission, but did not require POST requests, so it was vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF). This allowed attackers to execute arbitrary code on the Jenkins controller by applying AST transforming annotations such as @Grab to source code elements.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a security breach or could affect integrity, availability, and confidentiality.
