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
The Details view of some Static Analysis Utilities based plugins, was vulnerable to a persisted cross-site scripting vulnerability: Malicious users able to influence the input to these plugins, for example the console output which is parsed to extract build warnings (Warnings Plugin), could insert arbitrary HTML into this view.

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

This is a persisted cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Jenkins plugins based on Static Analysis Utilities. The Details view fails to properly sanitize input from sources like console output (used to extract build warnings), allowing authenticated users with the ability to influence plugin input to inject arbitrary HTML/JavaScript that persists in the Details view.

MitigationUpdate affected Static Analysis Utilities-based plugins to versions that include proper input sanitization, or implement output encoding for the Details view to prevent HTML injection from untrusted input sources.

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 Static Analysis Utilities plugin is installed
    Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, or use the Jenkins CLI: java -jar jenkins-cli.jar list-plugins | grep -i 'static-analysis'
    Affected if The Static Analysis Utilities plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Check the installed version of Static Analysis Utilities
    In the plugin manager, click on the Static Analysis Utilities plugin and note the version shown, or check the plugin's manifest file (META-INF/MANIFEST.MF) in the plugin's .jpi file
    Affected if The version number is 1.91 or lower
  3. Identify plugins based on Static Analysis Utilities
    Review installed plugins for known analysis plugins that depend on Static Analysis Utilities (e.g., Checkstyle, PMD, FindBugs, and similar code analysis plugins)
    Affected if Any analysis plugins derived from Static Analysis Utilities are installed alongside the vulnerable utility plugin
  4. Verify access to the Details view of analysis results
    Navigate to a completed build that has analysis results, then access the analysis plugin's Details view (typically via the build page > Static Analysis Utilities-based plugin link)
    Affected if The Details view is accessible and displays extracted information from build artifacts or console output
  5. Confirm console output or build artifact processing is in use
    Review job configurations to see if any jobs are configured to parse console output or build artifacts using the analysis plugins
    Affected if Build jobs feed console output or build warnings to the analysis plugins that use the Static Analysis Utilities framework

A user is affected if Static Analysis Utilities plugin version 1.91 or lower is installed AND analysis plugins based on it are in use, allowing injection of unsanitized input that renders in the Details view.
