Real-World Exposure

1 pkg affected
☕com.groupon.jenkins-ci.plugins:DotCi

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

DotCi Plugin provides a webhook endpoint at /githook/ that can be used to trigger builds of the job for a GitHub repository.

In DotCi Plugin 2.40.00 and earlier, this endpoint can be accessed without authentication.

This allows unauthenticated attackers to trigger builds of jobs corresponding to the attacker-specified repository for attacker-specified commits.

This plugin has been suspended.

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.groupon.jenkins-ci.plugins:DotCi, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Remediation status

    The records we use list no patched version of com.groupon.jenkins-ci.plugins:DotCi for CVE-2022-41238. Check the maintainer's advisory, and where your build allows, override or pin the dependency away from the vulnerable range.

  3. Mitigate without a patch

    Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
