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 OpenShift Deployer Plugin in the DeployApplication.DeployApplicationDescriptor#doCheckLogin form validation method allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to initiate a connection to an attacker-specified server.

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

Missing permission check in Jenkins OpenShift Deployer Plugin's DeployApplication.DeployApplicationDescriptor#doCheckLogin form validation method allows authenticated users with Overall/Read permission (the lowest privilege) to trigger server connections to attacker-specified URLs, resulting in a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability.

MitigationAdd a proper permission check (e.g., Permission check for Overall/Administer or a specific permission) to the doCheckLogin method to ensure only authorized users can trigger outbound connections from the Jenkins server.

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 OpenShift Deployer plugin is installed
    Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and look for 'OpenShift Deployer' in the list of installed plugins
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In the Installed plugins list, locate the OpenShift Deployer plugin and note the version number displayed in the Version column
    Affected if The version number is 1.2.0 or lower
  3. Confirm plugin is actively configured
    Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Configure System and look for OpenShift Deployer configuration section, or check job configurations for OpenShift Deployer build steps
    Affected if The plugin has an active configuration or is used in any job definitions
  4. Verify accessible form validation endpoint
    The vulnerability exists in the doCheckLogin form validation method. In a default Jenkins setup, this endpoint would be accessible at /descriptorByName/openshiftdeployer.OpenShiftDeployerPublisher/doCheckLogin to any authenticated user with Overall/Read permission
    Affected if The plugin is installed and Jenkins allows authenticated users with Overall/Read access to access form validation endpoints

You are affected if the OpenShift Deployer plugin version is 1.2.0 or lower AND the plugin is installed in your Jenkins instance, since the missing permission check allows any authenticated user with basic read access to trigger SSRF attacks.

From vendor data
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 1.2.0
Interim mitigation

Add a proper permission check (e.g., Permission check for Overall/Administer or a specific permission) to the doCheckLogin method to ensure only authorized users can trigger outbound connections from the Jenkins server.
