How to Fix CVE-2025-53652

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Git parameter 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.tools:git-parameter fixed: 444.vca 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jenkins-ci.tools</groupId>
    <artifactId>git-parameter</artifactId>
    <version>444.vca</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.tools

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2025-53652, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.jenkins-ci.tools

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Git parameter in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 444.vca), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.jenkins-ci.tools 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-1287: Improper Validation of Specified Type of Input, where the product receives input that is expected to be of a certain type, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input is actually of the expected type. In Git parameter, 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 Git Parameter Plugin implements a choice build parameter that lists the configured Git SCM’s branches, tags, pull requests, and revisions. Git Parameter Plugin 439.vb_0e46ca_14534 and earlier does not validate that the Git parameter value submitted to the build matches one of the offered choices. This allows attackers with Item/Build permission to inject arbitrary values into Git parameters. Git Parameter Plugin 444.vca_b_84d3703c2 validates that the Git parameter value submitted to the build matches one of the offered choices.
