How to Fix CVE-2022-43408

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Jenkins Pipeline dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view fixed: 2.27
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view</groupId>
    <artifactId>pipeline-stage-view</artifactId>
    <version>2.27</version>
</dependency>
org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view fixed: 2.24.2
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view</groupId>
    <artifactId>pipeline-stage-view</artifactId>
    <version>2.24.2</version>
</dependency>
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2022-43408, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Jenkins Pipeline in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.27), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-352: Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), where the web application does not, or cannot, sufficiently verify whether a request was intentionally provided by the user who sent the request, which could have originated from an unauthorized actor. In Jenkins Pipeline, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Jenkins Pipeline: Stage View Plugin provides a visualization of Pipeline builds. It also allows users to interact with `input` steps from Pipeline: Input Step Plugin. Pipeline: Stage View Plugin 2.26 and earlier does not correctly encode the ID of `input` steps when using it to generate URLs to proceed or abort Pipeline builds. This allows attackers able to configure Pipelines to specify `input` step IDs resulting in URLs that would bypass the CSRF protection of any target URL in Jenkins. Pipeline: Stage View Plugin 2.27 correctly encodes the ID of `input` steps when using it to generate URLs to proceed or abort Pipeline builds.
