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 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 confidence

The 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.

MitigationUpgrade 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.

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. Identify if Jenkins Eggplant Runner Plugin is installed
    List 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
  2. Determine the installed version of Eggplant Runner Plugin
    Check the plugin's manifest file (META-INF/MANIFEST.MF) inside the plugin .jpi file, or view the version listed in the Jenkins UI plugin manager
    Affected if The version is 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8 or earlier
  3. Verify the plugin is actively loaded and enabled
    Check 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

Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 0.0.1.301.v963cffe8ddb_8
Interim mitigation

Upgrade 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.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

  1. 1. Navigate to the Jenkins Manage Plugins page
  2. 2. Go to the 'Installed' tab and locate the Eggplant Runner plugin
  3. 3. Check for available updates for the Eggplant Runner plugin
  4. 4. If a newer version is available, select it and click 'Download now and install after restart' or 'Update'
