Description

Jenkins Pipeline: Deprecated Groovy Libraries Plugin 552.vd9cc05b8a2e1 and earlier uses the names of Pipeline libraries to create directories without canonicalization or sanitization.

This allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins controller JVM using specially crafted library names if a global Pipeline library is already configured.

Pipeline: Deprecated Groovy Libraries Plugin 561.va_ce0de3c2d69 sanitizes the names of Pipeline libraries when creating library directories.

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.workflow:workflow-cps-global-lib, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins.workflow:workflow-cps-global-lib to 561.va_ce0de3c2d69 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-7rcw-fwfh-2h2g 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.

Fixing This On Your OS

If you run this on a Linux distribution, patch through your package manager against the distro's own security advisory below — it tracks the exact backported fix for your release, which can ship on a different timeline (and sometimes a different severity) than the upstream project.
