How to Fix CVE-2021-21664

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

com.xebialabs.deployit.ci:deployit-plugin fixed: 10.0.2 
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.xebialabs.deployit.ci</groupId>
    <artifactId>deployit-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>10.0.2</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=com.xebialabs.deployit.ci

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2021-21664, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.xebialabs.deployit.ci

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Deployit plugin in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 10.0.2), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.xebialabs.deployit.ci 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-863: Incorrect Authorization, where the product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check. In Deployit plugin, 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

An incorrect permission check in Jenkins XebiaLabs XL Deploy Plugin 10.0.1 and earlier allows attackers with Generic Create permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing Username/password credentials stored in Jenkins. The permission check was partially fixed in XebiaLabs XL Deploy Plugin 7.5.9: A permission check was added, but for the wrong permission, still allowing some non-admin users to access the form validation method.
