How do I fix GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3?

Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:rapiddeploy-jenkins to 4.2.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:rapiddeploy-jenkins. 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.

How do I mitigate GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

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 does O3 Security protect against GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3?

GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.7%, placing it in the 50th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

When was GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-f4gq-7hvf-fjm3 was published on May 24, 2022 and was last updated on November 8, 2023. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

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

RapidDeploy Plugin 4.2 and earlier does not escape package names in its displayed table of packages obtained from a remote server. This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by users able to configure jobs.

RapidDeploy Plugin 4.2.1 escapes package names.
