# Jenkins CVE-2024-23897 PoC

A proof-of-concept (PoC) for CVE-2024-23897, an arbitrary file read vulnerability in Jenkins' built-in command line interface (CLI). It allows unauthenticated attackers with Overall/Read permission to read arbitrary files on the Jenkins controller file system.

**Affected Versions**

- Jenkins versions <= 2.441
- Jenkins LTS versions <= 2.426.2

## Set up a vulnerable instance

Spin up a local vulnerable instance using docker compose:

```bash
cd docker
docker compose up -d
```

The instance will be available at `http://localhost:1234`

## Exploitation

```bash
❯ python CVE-2024-23897.py --help
usage: CVE-2024-23897.py [-h] [--url URL] [--file FILE] [--method {1,2,3}]

Jenkins CVE-2024-23897 file-read PoC

options:
  -h, --help        show this help message and exit
  --url URL         URL for Jenkins instance (default: http://localhost:1234)
  --file FILE       File to read (default: /etc/hostname)
  --method {1,2,3}  The method to use [connect-node(1), who-am-i(2), or help(3)] (default: 1)
```

**Example**

```bash
❯ python CVE-2024-23897.py --url 'http://127.0.0.1:1234/' --file '/etc/hostname'

The script may have issues reading larger files due to concurrency and connection timeouts. For more technical details and a walkthrough of the vulnerability take at a look at my [blog post on the topic](https://abraxas.pages.dev/blog/cve-2024-23897/).

## Fix

- Upgrade to Jenkins 2.442 or LTS 2.426.3
