Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Jenkins 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.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2023-28677

Advisory: Jenkins Convert To Pipeline Plugin vulnerable to command injection
IDs: CVE-2023-28677, GHSA-7c44-m589-36w7
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2023-28677 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:11 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 8.0)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:convert-to-pipeline: affected <= 1.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:convert-to-pipeline: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on org.jenkins-ci.plugins:convert-to-pipeline.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
- Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-7c44-m589-36w7 (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-7c44-m589-36w7 lists affected ranges: Maven org.jenkins-ci.plugins:convert-to-pipeline >=0 <=1.0)

Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
