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
Jenkins Package Version Plugin 1.0.1 and earlier does not escape the name of Package version parameters on views displaying parameters, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers with Item/Configure permission.

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

Jenkins Package Version Plugin 1.0.1 and earlier fails to escape Package version parameter names when rendering them in views, allowing stored XSS injection. Attackers with Item/Configure permission can embed malicious JavaScript into parameter names that executes when other users view the parameter display.

MitigationUpdate to a patched version of the Package Version Plugin when available; otherwise, restrict Item/Configure permission to trusted users only and validate/sanitize all parameter name inputs.

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 Package Version Plugin is installed
    Go to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, search for 'Package Version' in the filter, and confirm the plugin appears in the list.
    Affected if The plugin is present in the installed plugins list.
  2. Determine the installed version of Package Version Plugin
    In the same plugin list view, note the Version column value displayed next to the Package Version plugin entry.
    Affected if The version is 1.0.1 or earlier.
  3. Identify jobs using Package Version plugin parameters
    Review job configurations: for each job, go to Configure > Build Steps > Package Version section (if present), and inspect any defined Package version parameters and their Name fields.
    Affected if Jobs contain Package version parameters with names that could have been supplied by untrusted users.
  4. Audit Item/Configure permission assignments
    Go to Manage Jenkins > Manage and Assign Roles > Manage Roles (or your configured authorization matrix), and review which users or groups are granted the Item/Configure permission.
    Affected if Users with Item/Configure permission are untrusted or include members outside your security boundary.

You are affected if the Package Version Plugin version is 1.0.1 or earlier AND any job using the plugin exposes parameter names that could have been crafted by users with Item/Configure permission.
