CVE-2019-10327
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 · uneditedAn XML external entities (XXE) vulnerability in Jenkins Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 1.7.0 and earlier allowed attackers able to control a temporary directory's content on the agent running the Maven build to have Jenkins parse a maliciously crafted XML file that uses external entities for extraction of secrets from the Jenkins master, server-side request forgery, or denial-of-service attacks.
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 confidenceAn XXE vulnerability in Jenkins Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 1.7.0 and earlier allows attackers who control a temporary directory on the agent running Maven builds to supply a malicious XML file that Jenkins parses using external entities, enabling extraction of secrets from the Jenkins master, SSRF, or denial-of-service.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin is installedGo to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and search for 'Pipeline Maven Integration' in the list of installed plugins.Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list.
-
Determine the installed plugin versionIn the same Manage Plugins view, locate the Pipeline Maven Integration plugin and note the version number displayed in the Version column.Affected if The installed version is 1.7.0 or earlier.
-
Identify configured build agentsGo to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Nodes to view all configured agents (nodes) that can run Maven builds.Affected if One or more agents are configured and active.
-
Assess temporary directory exposure on agentsReview agent workspace configurations and file system permissions on agent machines to determine if untrusted users can create or modify files in the temporary directories used during Maven builds.Affected if Untrusted users have write access to temp directories on any configured agent.
A user is affected if the Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin version is 1.7.0 or earlier AND there are build agents where an attacker could place a malicious XML file in a temporary directory.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpgrade the Jenkins Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin to version 1.7.1 or later. Additionally, restrict and monitor access to temporary directories on build agents to prevent attackers from placing malicious XML files.
