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
Missing Authorization vulnerability in Hive Support Hive Support hive-support allows Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs.This issue affects Hive Support: from n/a through <= 1.2.5.

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 confidence

The Hive Support Jenkins plugin (hive-support versions through 1.2.5) has a missing authorization vulnerability where functionality is not properly constrained by Access Control Lists (ACLs). This allows authenticated users to access functionality they should not have permission to access, bypassing Jenkins role-based access controls.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of Hive Support when available. Until then, restrict user permissions to the minimum required and review Jenkins global security settings to limit exposure to affected plugin functionality.

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 Hive Support plugin installation
    Navigate to Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed tab and search for 'Hive Support', or check the plugin directory $JENKINS_HOME/plugins for a hive-support folder
    Affected if The plugin is installed and appears in the list of installed plugins
  2. Check installed plugin version
    In Manage Jenkins > Manage Plugins > Installed, locate Hive Support and note the version number displayed in the 'Version' column
    Affected if The installed version is 1.2.5 or any version lower than 1.2.5 (the vulnerability affects versions through 1.2.5)
  3. Review Jenkins authorization strategy
    Go to Manage Jenkins > Configure Global Security and locate the 'Authorization' section. Identify which authorization strategy is configured (e.g., Matrix-based security, Role-based Strategy, etc.)
    Affected if The authorization strategy is set to any mode that allows authenticated users to have partial access, as the flaw allows bypassing role-based access controls
  4. Verify ACL configuration for plugin functionality
    Check if there are specific ACL rules or permissions configured that restrict Hive Support features. Review the global security settings and any role-based access control (RBAC) rules that might apply to the plugin's functionality
    Affected if No specific ACL restrictions exist for Hive Support functionality, or if the configured permissions allow authenticated users broader access than intended

A user is affected if the Hive Support plugin is installed at version 1.2.5 or below AND their Jenkins instance uses an authorization configuration that permits authenticated users to access functionality beyond their intended permissions.

Mitigation

Upgrade to a patched version of Hive Support when available. Until then, restrict user permissions to the minimum required and review Jenkins global security settings to limit exposure to affected plugin functionality.
