How do I fix GHSA-h23j-73ww-7594?

Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:oic-auth to 4.421.v5422614eb or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-h23j-73ww-7594 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-h23j-73ww-7594 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:oic-auth. 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-h23j-73ww-7594 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-h23j-73ww-7594?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-h23j-73ww-7594 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-h23j-73ww-7594 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-h23j-73ww-7594 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-h23j-73ww-7594?

GHSA-h23j-73ww-7594 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.6%, placing it in the 45th percentile of all CVEs.

Description

Jenkins OpenId Connect Authentication Plugin 4.418.vccc7061f5b_6d and earlier does not invalidate the previous session on login. This allows attackers to use social engineering techniques to gain administrator access to Jenkins. OpenId Connect Authentication Plugin 4.421.v5422614eb_e0a_ invalidates the existing session on login.
