CVE-2023-42662
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 · uneditedJFrog Artifactory versions 7.59 and above, but below 7.59.18, 7.63.18, 7.68.19, 7.71.8 are vulnerable to an issue whereby user interaction with specially crafted URLs could lead to exposure of user access tokens due to improper handling of the CLI / IDE browser based SSO integration.
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 confidenceJFrog Artifactory versions below 7.59.18, 7.63.18, 7.68.19, and 7.71.8 contain an information disclosure vulnerability where specially crafted URLs in the CLI/IDE browser-based SSO integration improperly handle user access tokens, leading to token exposure.

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 installed Artifactory versionAccess the Artifactory UI and navigate to the Administration > System > General > System Info page, or query the /api/system/version REST endpointAffected if The version is 7.59.0 through 7.59.17, 7.63.5 through 7.63.17, 7.68.7 through 7.68.18, or 7.71.2 through 7.71.7
-
Verify browser-based SSO integration is configuredNavigate to Administration > Security > SSO in the Artifactory UI and check if any browser-based SSO provider (such as SAML, OAuth, or LDAP browser integration) is enabledAffected if Browser-based SSO integration is enabled and the installed version falls within the affected ranges listed above
-
Check for token exposure in audit logsReview Artifactory audit logs (accessible via Administration > Analytics > Audit) for any requests containing unusually crafted URLs that may have captured access tokens, or search for log entries with pattern '/oauth2/authorization/.*token='Affected if Audit logs contain evidence of token exposure through specially crafted URLs and the Artifactory version is within the affected ranges
A user is affected if their JFrog Artifactory installation version falls within any of the four vulnerable ranges AND browser-based SSO integration is enabled, as the flaw requires the SSO feature to be configured.
