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 cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Jenkins vRealize Orchestrator Plugin 3.0 and earlier allows attackers to send an HTTP POST request to an attacker-specified URL.

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

A CSRF vulnerability in the Jenkins vRealize Orchestrator Plugin versions 3.0 and earlier allows attackers to exploit missing CSRF protection (likely missing Jenkins crumb token validation) to send HTTP POST requests to attacker-specified URLs, enabling authenticated users to be tricked into performing unintended actions.

MitigationUpgrade the vRealize Orchestrator Plugin to version 3.1 or later which includes proper CSRF protection via Jenkins crumb token validation on all form submissions and API endpoints.

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 vRealize Orchestrator Plugin is installed
    Navigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and search for 'vRealize Orchestrator' or 'vRO' in the plugin list
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Determine the installed plugin version
    In the same Installed plugins tab, locate the vRealize Orchestrator plugin and note the Version column value
    Affected if The version listed is 3.0 or earlier (e.g., 3.0, 2.x, 1.x)
  3. Verify CSRF protection configuration
    Navigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Configure Global Security and check if 'CSRF Protection' is enabled under the Security realm or Authorization section
    Affected if CSRF protection is disabled or the plugin version is 3.0 or earlier regardless of this setting

A user is affected if the vRealize Orchestrator Plugin version is 3.0 or earlier, as this version lacks proper CSRF (crumb) token validation on form submissions and API endpoints.
