How do I fix GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf?

Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:flaky-test-handler to 1.2.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:flaky-test-handler. 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-hv48-hgp6-xpqf 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-hv48-hgp6-xpqf?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf 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-hv48-hgp6-xpqf actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf 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-hv48-hgp6-xpqf?

GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.5%, placing it in the 40th 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.

What type of vulnerability is GHSA-hv48-hgp6-xpqf?

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

Jenkins Flaky Test Handler Plugin 1.2.2 and earlier does not escape JUnit test contents when showing them on the Jenkins UI.

This results in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers able to control JUnit report file contents.

Flaky Test Handler Plugin 1.2.3 escapes JUnit test contents when showing them on the Jenkins UI.
