What is CVE-2022-43408?

CVE-2022-43408 is a high-severity cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view (maven), affecting versions < 2.24.2. It is fixed in 2.24.2, 2.27. A victim's authenticated browser session is used to submit forged requests to an application that cannot distinguish them from legitimate ones.

How severe is CVE-2022-43408?

CVE-2022-43408 has a CVSS score of 8.0 (High). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.

Is there a fix for CVE-2022-43408?

Yes. CVE-2022-43408 is fixed in 2.24.2, 2.27. Upgrade to this version or later.

Is CVE-2022-43408 exploitable, and should I be worried?

Whether CVE-2022-43408 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

What actually determines whether CVE-2022-43408 is exploitable, and how bad it is?

Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.

Summary

Jenkins Pipeline: Stage View Plugin allows CSRF protection bypass of any target URL in Jenkins

Jenkins Pipeline: Stage View Plugin provides a visualization of Pipeline builds. It also allows users to interact with input steps from Pipeline: Input Step Plugin.

Pipeline: Stage View Plugin 2.26 and earlier does not correctly encode the ID of input steps when using it to generate URLs to proceed or abort Pipeline builds.

This allows attackers able to configure Pipelines to specify input step IDs resulting in URLs that would bypass the CSRF protection of any target URL in Jenkins.

Pipeline: Stage View Plugin 2.27 correctly encodes the ID of input steps when using it to generate URLs to proceed or abort Pipeline builds.

Impact

A victim's authenticated browser session is used to submit forged requests to an application that cannot distinguish them from legitimate ones. Typical impact: state-changing actions performed as the victim without their consent.

CVE-2022-43408 has a CVSS score of 8.0 (High). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and user interaction required. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (2.24.2, 2.27); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Affected versions

org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view (< 2.24.2) org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view (>= 2.25, < 2.27)

Security releases

org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view → 2.24.2 (maven) org.jenkins-ci.plugins.pipeline-stage-view:pipeline-stage-view → 2.27 (maven)

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.
