LLM-synthesized narrative grounded in this CVE's description and references.
Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin 3.8.2 and earlier exposes credential IDs to users with Overall/Read access due to missing permission check.
CVE-2020-2233 is a missing permission check vulnerability in the Jenkins Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin up to version 3.8.2. The plugin fails to verify that a user has the appropriate permissions before allowing them to enumerate credential IDs of credentials stored in Jenkins. [2][4]
An attacker with only Overall/Read access can exploit this by sending a crafted request to the plugin's API endpoint. No additional authentication or privileges are required. [2]
Successful exploitation allows the attacker to enumerate credential IDs, which could then be used in further attacks to potentially access those credentials if other vulnerabilities allow. The exposure of credential IDs is a security risk as it reveals the existence and identifiers of credentials. [2][4]
The vulnerability is fixed in Pipeline Maven Integration Plugin version 3.8.3. Users should upgrade to this version or later. No workarounds are available. [3]
