Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Stored cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10432)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to the affected plugin does not escape the project or build display name shown in the frame HTML page. A remote authenticated attacker who is able to control the project or build display name, typically users with Job/Configure or Build/Update permission can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


2) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10431)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to the sandbox protection in the affected plugin can be circumvented through default parameter expressions in constructors. A remote authenticated attacker can specify and run sandboxed scripts to execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins master JVM.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11255)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in Kubernetes CSI sidecar containers for external-provisioner (versions prior to 0.4.3 and 1.0.2, in version 1.1,  and versions prior to 1.2.2 and 1.3.1), external-snapshotter (versions prior to 0.4.2 and 1.0.2, in version 1.1, versions prior to 1.2.2), and external-resizer (versions 0.1,  and 0.2) . A local user can gain unauthorized PersistentVolume data access or volume mutation during snapshot, restore from snapshot, cloning and resizing operations.


4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-18367)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in libseccomp-golang. The software incorrectly generates BPFs that OR multiple arguments rather than ANDing them. A process running under a restrictive seccomp filter that specified multiple syscall arguments could bypass intended access restrictions by specifying a single matching argument.


5) Unprotected storage of credentials (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11250)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to other users' credentials.

The vulnerability exists due Kubernetes client-go library logs request headers at verbosity levels of 7 or higher. This can disclose credentials to unauthorized users via logs or command output. Kubernetes components (such as kube-apiserver) prior to v1.16.0, which make use of basic or bearer token authentication, and run at high verbosity levels, are affected. A local user can view contents of the configuration file and gain access to passwords for 3rd party integration.


6) Cleartext storage of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-14854)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to library-go component did not sanitize secret data written to static Pod logs when an Operator's log level was set to Debug or higher. A local user can read Pod logs if the log level had already been modified in an Operator by a privileged user.


7) Cleartext storage of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10213)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to OpenShift Container Platform writes secrets in clear text into pod logs when the log level in a given operator is set to Debug or higher. A local user can read the log files and gain access to sensitive information.
