Description

A man in the middle vulnerability exists in Jenkins CollabNet Plugin 2.0.4 and earlier in CollabNetApp.java, CollabNetPlugin.java, CNFormFieldValidator.java that allows attackers to impersonate any service that Jenkins connects to. CollabNet Plugin 2.0.5 and newer no longer does that. It instead requires users to opt in to disabling SSL/TLS certificate validation by setting the system property hudson.plugins.collabnet.CollabNetPlugin.skipSslValidation to true. This feature applies to connections by this plugin only.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:collabnet to 2.0.5 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2018-1000605 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
