CVE-2022-41254
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 · uneditedMissing permission checks in Jenkins CONS3RT Plugin 1.0.0 and earlier allow attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified HTTP server using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
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 · moderate confidenceMissing permission checks in Jenkins CONS3RT Plugin versions 1.0.0 and earlier allow authenticated users with only basic Overall/Read permission to connect to attacker-specified HTTP servers and exfiltrate stored Jenkins credentials by leveraging credential IDs obtained through another method.

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.
-
Check if CONS3RT Plugin is installedNavigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and search for 'CONS3RT' or list installed plugins via Jenkins CLI: jenkins-cli.jar -s http://localhost:8080 list-pluginsAffected if CONS3RT Plugin appears in the installed plugins list
-
Verify CONS3RT Plugin versionIn Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, find CONS3RT and check the Version column, or inspect the plugin manifest file at $JENKINS_HOME/plugins/cons3rt/META-INF/MANIFEST.MFAffected if Version is 1.0.0 or earlier
-
Confirm Overall/Read permission exists for untrusted usersReview Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Configure Global Security > Authorization settings. Check if 'Anyone can do anything' or if users with basic Overall/Read permission include untrusted accountsAffected if Unauthenticated or untrusted authenticated users have Overall/Read permission access
If the CONS3RT Plugin is installed at version 1.0.0 or earlier and untrusted users have Overall/Read permission, the environment is affected by CVE-2022-41254.
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 to a patched version of the CONS3RT Plugin. If no patched version exists, implement network segmentation and restrict Overall/Read access to trusted users only as a compensating control.
