How severe is CVE-2014-2065?

No CVSS score has been assigned to CVE-2014-2065 yet. Review the advisory details and affected package list to assess your exposure.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2014-2065?

CVE-2014-2065 affects the following packages: org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core (Maven), org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2014-2065?

Update org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core to 1.551 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2014-2065 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2014-2065 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2014-2065 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.

Is CVE-2014-2065 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2014-2065 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2014-2065?

CVE-2014-2065 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.8%, placing it in the 78th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2014-2065?

CVE-2014-2065 is classified as Cross-site Scripting (XSS) (CWE-79). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation. This is a high-impact weakness class that often enables remote code execution or data exposure.

When was CVE-2014-2065 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2014-2065 was published on May 17, 2022 and was last updated on December 3, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
