WID-SEC-W-2023-1902Jenkins: Mehrere SchwachstellenDeutsch2023-07-26csaf · cert_bundDE
Ein entfernter, anonymer oder authentisierter Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Jenkins ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen, vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen und einen Cross-Site-Scripting-Angriff durchzuführen.
GHSA-5jc5-m87x-88fjSecret displayed without masking by Chef Identity Plugin 2023-07-26ghsa · osvUS
Chef Identity Plugin stores the user.pem key in its global configuration file `io.chef.jenkins.ChefIdentityBuildWrapper.xml` on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration. While this key is stored encrypted on disk, in Chef Identity Plugin 2.0.3 and earlier the global configuration form does not mask the user.pem key form field, increasing the potential for attackers to observe and capture it.
