How severe is GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh?

GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh has a CVSS score of 6.5/10, rated MEDIUM. Review your exposure and patch according to your risk tolerance.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh?

GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh affects the following packages: org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core (Maven), org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core (Maven), org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh?

Update org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core to 2.394 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core. 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-frgr-c5f2-8qhh 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-frgr-c5f2-8qhh?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh 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-frgr-c5f2-8qhh actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh 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-frgr-c5f2-8qhh?

GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.0%, placing it in the 58th 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-frgr-c5f2-8qhh published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-frgr-c5f2-8qhh was published on March 10, 2023 and was last updated on February 16, 2024. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.

Description

Jenkins 2.393 and earlier, LTS 2.375.3 and earlier, and prior to LTS 2.387.1 is affected by the Apache Commons FileUpload library’s vulnerability CVE-2023-24998. This library is used to process uploaded files via the Stapler web framework (usually through StaplerRequest#getFile) and MultipartFormDataParser in Jenkins.

This allows attackers to cause a denial of service (DoS) by sending crafted requests to HTTP endpoints processing file uploads.

Jenkins 2.394, LTS 2.375.4, and LTS 2.387.1 limits the number of request parts to be processed to 1000. Specific endpoints receiving only simple form submissions have a lower limit.
