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
A missing permission check in Jenkins Slack Notification Plugin 2.19 and earlier allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.

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 Jenkins Slack Notification Plugin versions 2.19 and earlier lacks proper permission checks on configuration endpoints. Attackers with only Overall/Read permission (the lowest privilege level) can configure arbitrary URLs and specify credential IDs to exfiltrate stored Jenkins credentials, effectively bypassing the intended access controls.

MitigationUpgrade Jenkins Slack Notification Plugin to version 2.20 or later. As an interim measure, restrict user permissions to最小必要权限 and review credential storage configurations.

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. Identify if Slack Notification Plugin is installed
    Navigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, or run: jenkins-cli.jar who-am-i (to confirm access) then check plugin listing
    Affected if The Slack Notification Plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In Jenkins UI, go to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed > Slack Notification Plugin. Note the version number displayed
    Affected if The version is 2.19 or lower (e.g., 2.19, 2.18, 2.17, etc.)
  3. Verify configuration endpoint access for low-privilege users
    Create or use a test user account with only Overall/Read permission. Attempt to access the Slack notification configuration page at: /jenkins/slack/notify or /jenkins/job/.../configure (where Slack notifications are configured)
    Affected if A user with only Overall/Read permission can view or modify Slack notification settings without receiving an authentication/authorization error
  4. Check for configured credentials in Slack notification settings
    As an admin, review the Slack notification configuration at: Manage Jenkins > Configure System > Slack or within job configurations. Look for any saved credentials or credential IDs
    Affected if Slack notifications are configured with stored Jenkins credentials (e.g., API tokens, bot tokens)
  5. Review audit logs for unauthorized Slack configuration changes
    Check Jenkins logs or audit logs for access to Slack configuration endpoints from low-privilege user accounts
    Affected if Logs show low-privilege users accessing or modifying Slack notification configuration endpoints

Your environment is affected if the Jenkins Slack Notification Plugin version is 2.19 or earlier AND users with only Overall/Read permission can access or modify Slack notification configuration settings that contain stored credentials.
