CVE-2025-67640Network attack vector

Arbitrary command execution via unescaped workspace path

Published Dec 10, 2025 · Updated Dec 10, 2025

OS command injection in Jenkins Git client Plugin 6.4.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute commands on build agents. Temporary credential scripts embed the workspace path directly in a command argument without correctly escaping shell metacharacters. Exploitation requires control of a workspace directory name, such as a dir step argument, without existing control of the Pipeline or its build programs.
