**Descriptions****Incorrect permission checks in Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin**

**SECURITY-3053 / CVE-2023-28668**  
**Severity (CVSS):** Medium  
**Affected plugin: role-strategy**  
**Description:**

Permissions in Jenkins can be enabled and disabled. Some permissions are disabled by default, e.g., Overall/Manage or Item/Extended Read. Disabled permissions cannot be granted directly, only through greater permissions that imply them (e.g., Overall/Administer or Item/Configure).

Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin 587.v2872c41fa\_e51 and earlier grants permissions even after they’ve been disabled.

This allows attackers to have greater access than they’re entitled to after the following operations took place:

1.  A permission is granted to attackers directly or through groups.
    
2.  The permission is disabled, e.g., through the script console.
    

Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin 587.588.v850a\_20a\_30162 does not grant disabled permissions.

**Severity (CVSS):** Medium  
**Affected plugin: octoperf**  
**Description:**

OctoPerf Load Testing Plugin Plugin 4.5.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check in an HTTP endpoint.

This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to enumerate credentials IDs of credentials stored in Jenkins. Those can be used as part of an attack to capture the credentials using another vulnerability.

An enumeration of credentials IDs in OctoPerf Load Testing Plugin Plugin 4.5.3 requires the appropriate permissions.

**CSRF vulnerability and missing permission checks in OctoPerf Load Testing Plugin Plugin**

**SECURITY-3067 (4) / CVE-2023-28674 (CSRF), CVE-2023-28675 (missing permission check)**  
**Severity (CVSS):** Medium  
**Affected plugin: octoperf**  
**Description:**

OctoPerf Load Testing Plugin Plugin 4.5.2 and earlier does not perform permission checks in several HTTP endpoints.

This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to a previously configured Octoperf server using attacker-specified credentials.

**Command injection vulnerability in Convert To Pipeline Plugin results in RCE**

**SECURITY-2966 / CVE-2023-28677**  
**Severity (CVSS):** High  
**Affected plugin: convert-to-pipeline**  
**Description:**

Convert To Pipeline Plugin 1.0 and earlier uses basic string concatenation to convert Freestyle projects' Build Environment, Build Steps, and Post-build Actions to the equivalent Pipeline step invocations.

This allows attackers able to configure Freestyle projects to prepare a crafted configuration that injects Pipeline script code into the (unsandboxed) Pipeline resulting from a conversion by Convert To Pipeline Plugin. If an administrator converts the Freestyle project to a Pipeline, the script will be pre-approved.

**Stored XSS vulnerability in Cppcheck Plugin**

**SECURITY-2809 / CVE-2023-28678**  
**Severity (CVSS):** High  
**Affected plugin: cppcheck**
