Cross-site Scripting in Jenkins Autocomplete Parameter Plugin

  • Disclosed: 18.05.2022
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 11:21

Jenkins Autocomplete Parameter Plugin 1.1 and earlier references Dropdown Autocomplete parameter and Auto Complete String parameter names in an unsafe manner from Javascript embedded in view definitions, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers with Item/Configure permission.

While this looks similar to SECURITY-2729, this is an independent problem and exploitable even on views rendering parameters that otherwise attempt to prevent XSS vulnerabilities in parameter names.
