An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-28668 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.jenkins-ci.plugins:role-strategy (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 587.588.v850a_20a_30162\n- org.jenkins-ci.plugins:role-strategy (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 587.588.v850a_20a_30162\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-2023-28668/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28668/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-28668","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28668/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-28668","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-436g-2f92-cvhh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Jenkins authorization plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can retain unauthorized access in Jenkins because the Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin fails to revoke permissions after they are disabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jenkins","cpe":[{"product":"role-based_authorization_strategy","vendor":"jenkins"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-281","name":"Improper Preservation of Permissions"}],"description":"Jenkins Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin 587.v2872c41fa_e51 and earlier grants permissions even after they've been disabled.","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":"Jenkins Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin grants permissions even after they’ve been disabled","id":"CVE-2023-28668","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2023"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Jenkins JaCoCo Plugin vulnerable to Stored Cross-site Scripting","id":"CVE-2023-28669"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["587.588.v850a_20a_30162"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.jenkins-ci.plugins:role-strategy","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-436g-2f92-cvhh"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["587.588.v850a_20a_30162"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.jenkins-ci.plugins:role-strategy","purl":"pkg:maven/org.jenkins-ci.plugins/role-strategy","source":"GHSA-436g-2f92-cvhh"}],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in Lead Generated WordPress Plugin","id":"CVE-2023-28667"},"products":["Jenkins Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin"],"published":"2023-03-23","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Improper authorization due to caching in Jenkins Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin","id":"CVE-2020-2286","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"CSRF vulnerability in Jenkins Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin configuration","id":"CVE-2017-1000090","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-10-04"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Incorrect permission checks in Jenkins Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin may allow accessing some items","id":"CVE-2021-21624","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-18"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-25","vendors":["Jenkins Project"]},"summary":"Attackers can retain unauthorized access in Jenkins because the Role-based Authorization Strategy Plugin fails to revoke permissions after they are disabled.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-28668/"}
