Exploitation Probability (EPSS)

Low risk
0.39%

33th percentile - higher than 33% of all known CVEs

Summary

In Jenkins 2.579 and earlier, and LTS 2.568.2 and earlier, the system log viewer does not escape log record metadata (source, level, timestamp), resulting in a stored XSS vulnerability exploitable by attackers controlling agent processes.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can inject malicious scripts into logs that execute in an administrator's browser, potentially leading to session theft or other unauthorized actions.

Recommendation

Update Jenkins to a version that properly escapes log metadata, and limit trust in agent processes.
