Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Docker Commons Plugin provides a list of applicable credential IDs to allow users configuring a job to select the one they'd like to use to authenticate with a Docker Registry. This functionality did not check permissions, allowing any user with Overall/Read permission to get a list of valid credentials IDs. Those could be used as part of an attack to capture the credentials using another vulnerability.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Docker Commons Plugin exposed a list of valid Docker Registry credential IDs to any user with Overall/Read permission without verifying authorization. This allowed unauthorized enumeration of credential identifiers that could be leveraged in chained attacks to capture credentials.

MitigationUpdate the Docker Commons Plugin to a version that implements proper permission checks before returning credential IDs, restricting access to authorized users only.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify Docker Commons Plugin is installed
    Navigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, or use the Jenkins CLI: java -jar jenkins-cli.jar list-plugins | grep docker
    Affected if Docker Commons Plugin appears in the plugin list
  2. Check installed version of Docker Commons Plugin
    In Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed, find Docker Commons and note the version number
    Affected if Version is 1.9 or lower (or any version if not patched)
  3. Verify credential IDs are accessible to low-privilege users
    Create or use a test account with only Overall/Read permission (no Admin or Configure permissions), then attempt to access the Docker Commons API endpoint or check if credential IDs appear in job configurations visible to that user
    Affected if A user with only Overall/Read permission can view/list Docker registry credential IDs
  4. Check for Docker registry credentials configured in Jenkins
    Navigate to Credentials > System > Global credentials, or use Jenkins API: /api/json?tree=credentials[id,typeName]
    Affected if Docker Registry credentials are present and the plugin is vulnerable

If the Docker Commons Plugin version is 1.9 or lower AND Docker registry credentials are configured, users with Overall/Read permission can enumerate credential IDs.
