Which packages are affected by CVE-2022-23113?

CVE-2022-23113 affects the following packages: org.jenkins-ci.plugins:publish-over-ssh (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2022-23113?

Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:publish-over-ssh to 1.23 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2022-23113 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2022-23113 in my Maven dependencies?

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

How do I mitigate CVE-2022-23113 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Resolve every user-supplied path to its canonical form and reject anything that escapes the intended directory, and run the component under an account that has no read or write access outside the directory it legitimately serves.

Is CVE-2022-23113 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2022-23113 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.
