How to Fix CVE-2024-52554

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

io.jenkins.plugins:shared-library-version-override fixed: 19.v3a 
<dependency>
    <groupId>io.jenkins.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>shared-library-version-override</artifactId>
    <version>19.v3a</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=io.jenkins.plugins

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2024-52554, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=io.jenkins.plugins

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Shared library version override in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 19.v3a), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=io.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-862: Missing Authorization, where the product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action. In Shared library version override, 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 Shared Library Version Override Plugin 17.v786074c9fce7 and earlier declares folder-scoped library overrides as trusted, so that they're not executed in the Script Security sandbox, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission on a folder to configure a folder-scoped library override that runs without sandbox protection. This allows attackers with Item/Configure permission on a folder to configure a folder-scoped library override that runs without sandbox protection. Shared Library Version Override Plugin 19.v3a_c975738d4a_ declares folder-scoped library overrides as untrusted, so that they’re executed in the Script Security sandbox.
