How severe is GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg?

GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg has a CVSS score of 7.1/10, rated HIGH. Immediate patching is strongly recommended.

Which packages are affected by GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg?

GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg affects the following packages: org.jenkins-ci.plugins:pipeline-maven (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg?

Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:pipeline-maven to 3.8.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:pipeline-maven. 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-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg 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-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg?

O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg 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-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg 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-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg?

GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 1.1%, placing it in the 60th 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-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg?

GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg is classified as CWE-862 (CWE-862). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg published, and has it been updated?

GHSA-mrr8-fcg7-p2wg was published on May 24, 2022 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.

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

Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check in a method implementing form validation.

This allows users with Overall/Read access to Jenkins to connect to an attacker-specified JDBC URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, potentially capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.

Additionally, this form validation method does not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.

Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.3 requires POST requests and Job/Configure permission for the affected form validation method.
