Which packages are affected by GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644?

GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644 affects the following packages: org.jenkins-ci.plugins:electricflow (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644?

Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:electricflow to 1.1.33 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:electricflow. 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-jx7x-rf3f-j644 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-jx7x-rf3f-j644?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644 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-jx7x-rf3f-j644 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-jx7x-rf3f-j644 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.

☕org.jenkins-ci.plugins:electricflow

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

In Jenkins CloudBees CD Plugin, artifacts that were previously copied from an agent to the controller are deleted after publishing by the 'CloudBees CD - Publish Artifact' post-build step.

CloudBees CD Plugin 1.1.32 and earlier follows symbolic links to locations outside of the expected directory during this cleanup process.

This allows attackers able to configure jobs to delete arbitrary files on the Jenkins controller file system.

CloudBees CD Plugin 1.1.33 deletes symbolic links without following them.
