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 couchdb-statistics Plugin 0.3 and earlier stores its server password unencrypted in its global configuration file org.jenkinsci.plugins.couchstats.CouchStatsConfig.xml on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration.

This password can be viewed by users with access to the Jenkins controller file system.

couchdb-statistics Plugin 0.4 stores its server password encrypted once its configuration is saved again.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

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

  2. Fix

    Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:couchdb-statistics to 0.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jrjr-7rf4-3wqh is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. 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.

  4. How O3 protects you

    O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-jrjr-7rf4-3wqh 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-jrjr-7rf4-3wqh. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
