Source: GitHub Advisory Database (reviewed) Moderate CVE-2023-49673

Packages

Ecosystem	Package	Affected	Fixed in
Maven	io.jenkins.plugins:neuvector-vulnerability-scanner	< 2.2	2.2

Details

As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).

Jenkins NeuVector Vulnerability Scanner Plugin 1.22 and earlier does not perform a permission check in a connection test HTTP endpoint. This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified hostname and port using attacker-specified username and password. Additionally, this HTTP endpoint does not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability. NeuVector Vulnerability Scanner Plugin 2.2 requires POST requests and Overall/Administer permission for the affected HTTP endpoint.
