How to Fix CVE-2017-1000114

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Datadog 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.datadog.jenkins.plugins:datadog fixed: 0.6.2 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.datadog.jenkins.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>datadog</artifactId>
    <version>0.6.2</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.datadog.jenkins.plugins

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2017-1000114, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.datadog.jenkins.plugins

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Datadog in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.6.2), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.datadog.jenkins.plugins 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-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor, where the product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. In Datadog, 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

The Datadog Plugin stores an API key to access the Datadog service in the global Jenkins configuration. While the API key is stored encrypted on disk, it was transmitted in plain text as part of the configuration form. This could result in exposure of the API key for example through browser extensions or cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. The Datadog Plugin now encrypts the API key transmitted to administrators viewing the global configuration form.
