- GHSA-8538-25v4-25pgXXE vulnerability in Jenkins JAPEX Plugin2022-11-16ghsa · osvUS
JAPEX Plugin 1.7 and earlier does not configure its XML parser to prevent XML external entity (XXE) attacks. This allows attackers able to control XML input files for the 'Record Japex test report' post-build step to have Jenkins parse a crafted file that uses external entities for extraction of secrets from the Jenkins controller or server-side request forgery.
