GHSA-phwv-crgp-9r69
MEDIUMJenkins GitHub Authentication Plugin Cross-Site Request Forgery vulnerability
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Blast Radius
org.jenkins-ci.plugins:github-oauthReal-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 GitHub Authentication Plugin did not manage the state parameter of OAuth to prevent CSRF. This allowed an attacker to catch the redirect URL provided during the authentication process using OAuth and send it to the victim. If the victim was already connected to Jenkins, their Jenkins account would be attached to the attacker’s GitHub account.
The state parameter is now correctly managed.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:github-oauth. 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.
Fix
Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:github-oauth to 0.32 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-phwv-crgp-9r69 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
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.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-phwv-crgp-9r69 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-phwv-crgp-9r69. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-phwv-crgp-9r69 in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-phwv-crgp-9r69 across Maven dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
