Description

Convert To Pipeline Plugin 1.0 and earlier does not require POST requests for the HTTP endpoint converting a Freestyle project to Pipeline, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.

This vulnerability allows attackers to create a Pipeline based on a Freestyle project. Combined with SECURITY-2966/CVE-2023-28677, this can result in the execution of unsandboxed Pipeline scripts.

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:convert-to-pipeline, 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 org.jenkins-ci.plugins:convert-to-pipeline for CVE-2023-28676. 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

    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.
