A vulnerability in Jenkins HCL AppScan Plugin versions 1.8.3 and earlier allows users with Overall/Read permission to enumerate credential IDs stored in Jenkins due to missing permission checks.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-70433 describes a security flaw in the Jenkins HCL AppScan Plugin up to version 1.8.3 where missing permission checks permit attackers who have Overall/Read permission to enumerate the IDs of credentials stored within Jenkins. This vulnerability does not require elevated privileges beyond Overall/Read and could expose sensitive credential identifiers.
Potential Impact
Attackers with Overall/Read permission can list credential IDs stored in Jenkins, potentially aiding further attacks or reconnaissance. However, the vulnerability does not directly disclose credential secrets or allow modification, limiting the immediate impact to information disclosure of credential identifiers only.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict Overall/Read permissions to trusted users only to reduce exposure.
