CVE-2025-64135
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 Eggplant Runner Plugin 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8 and earlier sets the Java system property `jdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes` to an empty value, disabling a protection mechanism of the Java runtime.
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 Eggplant Runner Plugin sets the Java system property 'jdk.http.auth.tunneling.disabledSchemes' to an empty value, which removes a built-in Java security protection that restricts certain authentication schemes from being used in HTTP proxy tunneling. This allows potentially insecure authentication credentials to be transmitted through proxy tunnels, increasing the risk of credential theft or man-in-the-middle attacks.

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.
-
Identify if Jenkins Eggplant Runner Plugin is installedList all installed Jenkins plugins via Jenkins UI (Manage Jenkins > Plugins > Installed) or by checking the $JENKINS_HOME/plugins directory for a folder named 'eggplant-runner' or 'eggplant-runner.jpi'Affected if The plugin folder or .jpi file exists in the Jenkins plugins directory
-
Determine the installed version of Eggplant Runner PluginCheck the plugin's manifest file (META-INF/MANIFEST.MF) inside the plugin .jpi file, or view the version listed in the Jenkins UI plugin managerAffected if The version is 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8 or earlier
-
Verify the plugin is actively loaded and enabledCheck Jenkins system information or the plugin status page to confirm the Eggplant Runner Plugin status shows as 'Active' or 'Enabled'Affected if The plugin status shows as active or enabled in Jenkins
A user is affected if the Jenkins Eggplant Runner Plugin version 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8 or earlier is installed and enabled in their Jenkins instance.

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 the Jenkins Eggplant Runner Plugin to a version newer than 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8 that no longer disables this Java security mechanism, or remove the code that sets this property to an empty value if upgrading is not immediately possible.
A fixed version newer than 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8 (check Jenkins plugin repository for latest available version)
- 1. Navigate to the Jenkins Manage Plugins page
- 2. Go to the 'Installed' tab and locate the Eggplant Runner plugin
- 3. Check for available updates for the Eggplant Runner plugin
- 4. If a newer version is available, select it and click 'Download now and install after restart' or 'Update'
- 5. Wait for the plugin to update and for Jenkins to restart
- 6. Verify the plugin has been updated to a version newer than 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8
