Open advisories
4 actionable advisories, newest first. Withdrawn advisories and news are excluded. Coverage is partial.
Jenkins Ansible Plugin allows the specification of extra variables that can be passed to Ansible. These extra variables are commonly used to pass secrets. Ansible Plugin 204.v8191fd551ebf and earlier stores these extra variables unencrypted in job config.xml files on the Jenkins controller as part of its configuration. These extra variables can be viewed by users with Item/Extended Read permission or access to the Jenkins controller file system. Additionally, the job configuration form does not mask these extra variables, increasing the potential for attackers to observe and capture them. Ansible Plugin 205.v4cbc48657c21 masks extra variables displayed on the configuration form, and stores them encrypted once job configurations are saved again.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 205.v4cb or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.

Jenkins Ansible Plugin 1.0 and earlier does not perform permission checks in methods implementing form validation. 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 Ansible Plugin 1.1 requires the appropriate permissions.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.1 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
A man in the middle vulnerability exists in Jenkins Ansible Plugin 0.8 and older in AbstractAnsibleInvocation.java, AnsibleAdHocCommandBuilder.java, AnsibleAdHocCommandInvocationTest.java, AnsibleContext.java, AnsibleJobDslExtension.java, AnsiblePlaybookBuilder.java, AnsiblePlaybookStep.java that disables host key verification by default. Ansible Plugin 1.0 now enables host key verification by default, adding options allowing users to opt out.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
