CVE-2022-25211Network attack vector

Credential theft via unchecked form validation

Published Feb 15, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Missing authorization in Jenkins SWAMP Plugin 1.2.6 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to capture stored credentials. A form-validation method omits a permission check and connects to an attacker-selected URL with attacker-selected credential IDs. Overall/Read permission and a credential ID obtained through another method are required, and successful exploitation discloses the corresponding Jenkins credential.
