Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-43420 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.jenkins-ci.plugins:contrast-continuous-application-security (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 3.10\n- org.jenkins-ci.plugins:contrast-continuous-application-security (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 3.10\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-43420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43420/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-43420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hvcr-927w-qcvq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Jenkins security plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in Jenkins Contrast plugin allows attackers controlling API responses to execute scripts in user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jenkins","cpe":[{"product":"contrast_continuous_application_security","vendor":"jenkins"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Jenkins Contrast Continuous Application Security Plugin 3.9 and earlier does not escape data returned from the Contrast service when generating a report, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers able to control or modify Contrast service API responses.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Stored XSS vulnerability in Jenkins Contrast Continuous Application Security Plugin","id":"CVE-2022-43420","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Jenkins Tuleap Git Branch Source Plugin allows unauthenticated attackers to trigger Tuleap projects whose configured repo matches attacker-specified value","id":"CVE-2022-43421"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["3.10"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.jenkins-ci.plugins:contrast-continuous-application-security","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-hvcr-927w-qcvq"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["3.10"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.jenkins-ci.plugins:contrast-continuous-application-security","purl":"pkg:maven/org.jenkins-ci.plugins/contrast-continuous-application-security","source":"GHSA-hvcr-927w-qcvq"}],"prev":{"headline":"API keys stored in plain text by Jenkins Katalon Plugin","id":"CVE-2022-43419"},"products":["Jenkins Contrast Continuous Application Security Plugin"],"published":"2022-10-19","related":[{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Jenkins Contrast Continuous Application Security Plugin has a missing permission check","id":"CVE-2026-57297","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-24"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Jenkins Contrast Continuous Application Security Plugin missing permission checks","id":"CVE-2026-57299","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-24"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-08","vendors":["Jenkins project"]},"summary":"Stored XSS in Jenkins Contrast plugin allows attackers controlling API responses to execute scripts in user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43420/"}
