Real-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Maven packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.

Description

AppSpider Plugin 1.0.12 and earlier stores a password unencrypted in its global configuration file com.rapid7.jenkinspider.PostBuildScan.xml on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration.

This password can be viewed by users with access to the Jenkins controller file system.

AppSpider Plugin 1.0.13 stores a password encrypted once its configuration is saved again.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for com.rapid7:jenkinsci-appspider-plugin, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update com.rapid7:jenkinsci-appspider-plugin to 1.0.13 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2020-2314 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.
