GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7
MEDIUMGHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7 is a medium-severity (CVSS 6.1) Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in io.jenkins.plugins:warnings-ng. O3 Security confirms whether GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7 is actually reachable in your code before you act, and blocks exploitation at runtime until you patch.
XSS vulnerability in Jenkins Warnings Next Generation Plugin
Real-World Exposure
io.jenkins.plugins:warnings-ngReal-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
A cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in Jenkins Warnings Next Generation Plugin 1.0.1 and earlier in src/main/java/io/jenkins/plugins/analysis/core/model/DetailsTableModel.java, src/main/java/io/jenkins/plugins/analysis/core/model/SourceDetail.java, src/main/java/io/jenkins/plugins/analysis/core/model/SourcePrinter.java, src/main/java/io/jenkins/plugins/analysis/core/util/Sanitizer.java, src/main/java/io/jenkins/plugins/analysis/warnings/DuplicateCodeScanner.java that allows attackers with the ability to control warnings parser input to have Jenkins render arbitrary HTML.
Affected Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Vulnerable range | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for io.jenkins.plugins:warnings-ng. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update io.jenkins.plugins:warnings-ng to 2.0.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
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.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-cqp7-hwm3-cfg7 across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
