Exposure of secrets through system log in Jenkins Structs Plugin

Low severity GitHub Reviewed Published Jun 26, 2024 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Jun 26, 2024

Package

maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:structs (Maven)

Affected versions

< 338.v848422169819

Patched versions

338.v848422169819

Description

Structs Plugin provides utility functionality used, e.g., in Pipeline to instantiate and configure build steps, typically before their execution.

When Structs Plugin 337.v1b_04ea_4df7c8 and earlier fails to configure a build step, it logs a warning message containing diagnostic information that may contain secrets passed as step parameters.

This can result in accidental exposure of secrets through the default system log.

Structs Plugin 338.v848422169819 inspects the types of actual parameters before logging these warning messages, and limits detailed diagnostic information to FINE level log messages if secrets are involved. These log messages are not displayed in the default Jenkins system log.

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.
