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

Jenkins Claim Plugin 2.18.1 and earlier does not escape the user display name shown in claims.

This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers who are able to control the display names of Jenkins users, either via the security realm, or directly inside Jenkins.

Everyone with a Jenkins account can change their own display name.\n\nClaim Plugin 2.18.2 escapes the user display name shown in claims.

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:claim, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:claim to 2.18.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-48hr-jg4p-w4p4 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.
