CVE-2022-43408
Description
A Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability was found in a Jenkins plugin. This issue may allow an authenticated attacker to access Jenkins builds, bypassing CSRF protections.
Statement
Red Hat has shipped fixes for this vulnerability in OpenShift Container Platform versions 4.9 through 4.12 via updated jenkins-2-plugins packages. Older streams that have reached end of life are not being fixed.
Mitigation
Restrict the ability to configure Jenkins Pipelines to trusted users only. Upgrade to Jenkins Pipeline: Stage View Plugin version 2.27 or later, which correctly encodes input step IDs in generated URLs.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
