Jenkins Project Inheritance Plugin vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 24, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Feb 23, 2023

Package

maven hudson.plugins:project-inheritance (Maven)

Affected versions

< 19.08.2

Patched versions

19.08.2

Description

Project Inheritance Plugin allows the creation of projects based on templates defined in the plugin configuration.

A missing permission check in the HTTP endpoint triggering project creation allowed users with Overall/Read permission to create these projects. Additionally, the HTTP endpoint did not require POST requests, resulting in a CSRF vulnerability.

The HTTP endpoint triggering project creation now requires Item/Create permission and submission of requests via POST.

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.
