CVE-2022-34181

First published: Wed Jun 22 2022(Updated: )

Jenkins xUnit Plugin 3.0.8 and earlier implements an agent-to-controller message that creates a user-specified directory if it doesn't exist, and parsing files inside it as test results, allowing attackers able to control agent processes to create an arbitrary directory on the Jenkins controller or to obtain test results from existing files in an attacker-specified directory.
