CVE-2023-33007
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 · uneditedJenkins LoadComplete support Plugin 1.0 and earlier does not escape the LoadComplete test name, 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 confidenceThe Jenkins LoadComplete support Plugin 1.0 and earlier fails to escape the LoadComplete test name field before rendering it in the web interface. This allows an authenticated attacker with Item/Configure permission to inject malicious JavaScript code into the test name, which executes in the browsers of other users viewing the affected page (stored XSS).

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 if LoadComplete Support plugin is installedNavigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins. Click on the 'Installed' tab and search for 'LoadComplete' or 'Loadcomplete Support' in the list of installed plugins.Affected if The plugin appears in the Installed plugins list.
-
Confirm the plugin versionIn the Installed plugins tab, locate the LoadComplete Support plugin and check the Version column. The vulnerability affects version 1.0 and earlier.Affected if The Version listed is 1.0 or lower.
-
Identify jobs using the LoadComplete pluginNavigate to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > System Configuration > LoadComplete (or check individual job configurations). Review each job to see if the LoadComplete plugin is configured and being used.Affected if Any job has LoadComplete plugin configuration enabled.
-
Inspect the test name field in job configurationsFor each job configured with LoadComplete, go to Job > Configure and locate the LoadComplete test name field. View the page source or inspect the HTML to check if the test name value is properly escaped (look for HTML encoding like < > ").Affected if The test name field displays raw unescaped characters or contains user-supplied input without proper HTML encoding.
You are affected if the LoadComplete Support plugin is installed at version 1.0 or earlier and is configured in any Jenkins jobs, as the unescaped test name field creates a stored XSS vulnerability.

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.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade to a patched version of the LoadComplete support Plugin if available. If no patch exists, implement output encoding for the test name field before rendering or disable the plugin until a fix is released.
Update to the latest version of LoadComplete support plugin available in the Jenkins plugin repository (version higher than 1.0)
- Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins
- Locate the LoadComplete support plugin in the Installed tab
- Check for available updates for the LoadComplete support plugin
- If an update is available, select the plugin and click 'Download now and install after restart' or 'Update'
- Alternatively, download the newer plugin .jpi file from the Jenkins plugin repository and upload it via 'Advanced' tab > 'Upload Plugin'
