- Fix
1.625.2- Upgrade org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core to this version or later
Description
Jenkins before 1.638 and LTS before 1.625.2 do not properly restrict access to API tokens which might allow remote administrators to gain privileges and run scripts by using an API token of another user.
Affected versions
Maven
| Package | Vulnerable | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|
| org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core | < 1.625.2 |
1.625.2 |
| org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core | >= 1.626, < 1.638 |
1.638 |
How to fix
Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.

Weakness
CWE-522: Insufficiently Protected Credentials
The product transmits or stores authentication credentials, but it uses an insecure method that is susceptible to unauthorized interception and/or retrieval.
How to prevent it
- Architecture and Design: Use an appropriate security mechanism to protect the credentials.
- Architecture and Design: Make appropriate use of cryptography to protect the credentials.
- Implementation: Use industry standards to protect the credentials (e.g. LDAP, keystore, etc.).
