Description
Jenkins Multijob Plugin 669.v9d96a_d9c71b_0 and earlier provides Groovy scripting features that do not integrate with Script Security Plugin, allowing attackers with Item/Create or Item/Configure permission to execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins controller JVM.

AI Analysis

Impact

This vulnerability allows users with Item/Create or Item/Configure permissions to inject and run arbitrary Groovy scripts in the Jenkins controller’s Java Virtual Machine. Because the plugin’s scripting features bypass the Script Security Plugin, an attacker can execute code with the full privileges of the Jenkins service, potentially compromising the entire system. The impact encompasses complete denial of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected Jenkins instance.

Affected Systems

The Jenkins Multijob Plugin versions 669.v9d96a_d9c71b_0 and earlier are affected. Users deploying these versions on Jenkins should review plugin versions and consider upgrading to a release where Groovy scripting is enforced through the Script Security Plugin.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability is severe, as it permits remote code execution without requiring network-level access; it can be triggered by any user who can create or configure a multijob project. The CVSS score is not provided, but the lack of a Script Security check implies a high exploitation probability. The EPSS is unavailable and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, yet the potential damage warrants immediate attention.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Jenkins Multijob Plugin to the latest version where Groovy scripting is correctly integrated with the Script Security Plugin.
  • Disable Item/Create and Item/Configure permissions for untrusted users or restrict them to a least-privilege role that does not include job configuration capabilities.
  • Ensure the Script Security Plugin is enabled and properly configured to reject unsafe scripts; consider adding script approval rules to further harden the environment.
