DescriptionCVE.org

In Jenkins 2.579 and earlier, LTS 2.568.2 and earlier, the system log viewer does not escape log record metadata (source, level, and timestamp) resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers in control of agent processes.

AnalysisAI

Stored XSS in Jenkins' system log viewer exposes administrators and privileged users to session hijacking and UI redress attacks, exploitable by any attacker who controls a Jenkins agent process. The vulnerability affects Jenkins 2.579 and earlier (including LTS 2.568.2 and earlier), where log record metadata - source, level, and timestamp - is rendered in the browser without HTML escaping, allowing persistent JavaScript injection via agent-controlled log channels. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must control a Jenkins agent process connected to the target controller - achieved by compromising an existing build node (via a malicious pipeline script, vulnerable build dependency, or CI/CD supply-chain attack), registering a rogue agent if the instance is configured to accept unauthenticated JNLP/WebSocket agent connections, or through insider access to a build machine. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The provided CVSS 8.8 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) merits scrutiny on the PR:N metric: the described exploit path explicitly requires the attacker to 'control agent processes', implying at minimum a compromised build host, a rogue agent accepted by the controller, or insider access - not a zero-prior-access network attack. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade Jenkins to version 2.580 (weekly) or 2.568.3 (LTS) as the primary remediation, per the vendor advisory at https://www.jenkins.io/security/advisory/2026-09-02/#SECURITY-3967. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all Jenkins instances running version 2.579 or earlier and assess the trust level and external connectivity of agent processes in your environment. …
