Jenkins Pipeline: Build Step Plugin 2.18 and earlier does not escape job names in a JavaScript expression used in the Pipeline Snippet Generator, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers able to control job names.
CVE-2023-25762
Score elevated to 8.8 because EPSS predicts 81% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (99th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs). NVD baseline CVSS 5.4 retained for reference. Confidence: see factors.
- High exploitation likelihood — EPSS 81%

Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
