Executive Summary

Jenkins Multijob Plugin versions 669.v9d96a_d9c71b_0 and earlier have a flaw where Groovy scripting features are not properly restricted by the Script Security Plugin. This allows attackers with Item/Create or Item/Configure permissions to execute arbitrary code on the Jenkins controller, potentially taking control of the entire system.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check if Jenkins Multijob Plugin version 669.v9d96a_d9c71b_0 or earlier is installed. Use the Jenkins script console to run: 'println(Jenkins.instance.pluginManager.plugins.findAll { it.shortName == "multijob" }.version)' to verify the version. If vulnerable, update the plugin immediately.

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow unauthorized code execution on your Jenkins controller. This may lead to data breaches, system compromise, or disruption of Jenkins services. Attackers could steal sensitive data, install malware, or pivot to other systems in your network.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, violating GDPR and HIPAA compliance. Organizations may face fines, legal penalties, and reputational damage due to data breaches resulting from this flaw.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Jenkins Multijob Plugin to a version later than 669.v9d96a_d9c71b_0. Restrict Item/Create and Item/Configure permissions to trusted users only.
