CVE-2022-20612Network attack vector

Build triggering via CSRF-enabled GET endpoint

Published Jan 12, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Cross-site request forgery in Jenkins 2.329 and earlier and LTS 2.319.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to trigger parameterless jobs. The manual-build HTTP endpoint accepts a state-changing GET request instead of requiring POST when no security realm is configured. A victim must load attacker-controlled content that submits the request, and the result is limited to starting an existing job that requires no parameters.
