Jenkins Args4j CVE-2024-23897 Files Exposed Code at Risk

Jenkins, a popular open-source automation server, was discovered to be affected by a file read vulnerability, CVE-2024-23897.

Trend Micro

Good morning! Have a fairly gnarly RCE in #Jenkins:

Jenkins uses the args4j library to parse command arguments and options on the Jenkins controller when processing CLI commands. This command parser has a feature that replaces an @ character followed by a file path in an argument with the file’s contents (expandAtFiles). This feature is enabled by default and Jenkins 2.441 and earlier, LTS 2.426.2 and earlier does not disable it.www.jenkins.io/security/advisory/2024-01-24/#SECURITY-3314
