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 Subversion Partial Release Manager Plugin 1.0.1 and earlier programmatically disables the fix for CVE-2016-3721 whenever a build is triggered from a release tag, by setting the Java system property 'hudson.model.ParametersAction.keepUndefinedParameters'.

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

The Jenkins Subversion Partial Release Manager Plugin version 1.0.1 and earlier contains code that programmatically disables the security fix for CVE-2016-3721 by setting the Java system property 'hudson.model.ParametersAction.keepUndefinedParameters' to true whenever a build is triggered from a release tag. This re-enables the vulnerable behavior that allowed arbitrary parameters to be passed to builds, potentially enabling an attacker to exploit the original arbitrary file read vulnerability.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of the Subversion Partial Release Manager Plugin once available, or remove/disable the plugin if not essential. Alternatively, monitor and restrict who can trigger builds from release tags.

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 Subversion Partial Release Manager Plugin is installed
    Go to Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and search for 'Subversion Partial Release Manager' or check the plugin directory $JENKINS_HOME/plugins for subversion-release-manager or similar plugin folder
    Affected if The plugin appears in the installed plugins list
  2. Check the installed plugin version
    In Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab, find the Subversion Partial Release Manager plugin and note the version column. If using CLI, check the plugin's manifest.xml or .hpi file for the Version element
    Affected if The version is 1.0.1 or any version earlier than 1.0.1
  3. Identify if release tag builds are triggered
    Review Jenkins job configurations for any jobs using the Subversion Partial Release Manager plugin functionality to trigger builds from release tags. Check job configuration pages for release tag related parameters or triggers
    Affected if Jobs are configured to trigger builds from release tags using this plugin
  4. Check for the vulnerable system property setting
    Inspect build logs or system information for 'hudson.model.ParametersAction.keepUndefinedParameters=true' being set. This can also be checked via Jenkins > Manage Jenkins > System Information > System Properties
    Affected if The property hudson.model.ParametersAction.keepUndefinedParameters is set to true, especially during release tag builds
