Summary
Jenkins Gitee Plugin has an incorrect permission check that allows enumerating credentials IDs
Jenkins Gitee Plugin 1288.v18b_deb_c9069b_ and earlier does not correctly perform a permission check in an HTTP endpoint.
This allows attackers with global Item/Configure permission (while lacking Item/Configure permission on any particular job) to enumerate credentials IDs of credentials stored in Jenkins. Those can be used as part of an attack to capture the credentials using another vulnerability.
An enumeration of credentials IDs in Gitee Plugin 1292.v2559f2f3f2c0 requires Overall/Administer permission.
Impact
The application does not perform an authorization check before performing a sensitive operation. Typical impact: unauthorized access to restricted functionality or data.
CVE-2026-57293 has a CVSS score of 4.3 (Medium). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and no user interaction. 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 (1292.v2559f2f3f2c0); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2026-57293? CVE-2026-57293 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in org.jenkins-ci.plugins:gitee (maven), affecting versions < 1292.v2559f2f3f2c0. It is fixed in 1292.v2559f2f3f2c0. The application does not perform an authorization check before performing a sensitive operation.
- How severe is CVE-2026-57293? CVE-2026-57293 has a CVSS score of 4.3 (Medium). 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.
- Which versions of org.jenkins-ci.plugins:gitee are affected by CVE-2026-57293? org.jenkins-ci.plugins:gitee (maven) versions < 1292.v2559f2f3f2c0 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2026-57293? Yes. CVE-2026-57293 is fixed in 1292.v2559f2f3f2c0. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2026-57293 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2026-57293 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-2026-57293 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.
- How do I fix CVE-2026-57293? Upgrade
org.jenkins-ci.plugins:giteeto 1292.v2559f2f3f2c0 or later.
