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 Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and search for 'Static Analysis Utilities' or check the plugin directory $JENKINS_HOME/plugins for the static-analysis-utilities folder
    Affected if The plugin is present in the Jenkins environment
  2. Determine the installed plugin version
    In Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, locate the Static Analysis Utilities plugin and read the Version column; alternatively, check the version file in $JENKINS_HOME/plugins/static-analysis-utilities/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
    Affected if The version number is 1.95 or lower
  3. Check user permissions on the system
    Navigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Users and review which users have Overall/Read permission, particularly any users who should NOT have configuration modification access
    Affected if Users with Overall/Read permission exist who should not have ability to modify global settings
  4. Verify access to DefaultGraphConfigurationView doSave endpoint
    Attempt to access or check the URL pattern /descriptorByName/DefaultGraphConfigurationView/doSave or review any accessible job configuration forms that invoke this endpoint
    Affected if The doSave form handler method is accessible to users with only Overall/Read permission

If the Static Analysis Utilities plugin version is 1.95 or lower and users with only Overall/Read permission can access the DefaultGraphConfigurationView doSave method, the environment is vulnerable to CVE-2019-10308.
