Background
The Jenkins Delivery Pipeline Plugin is a plugin for the Jenkins automation server that provides a visualization of the continuous delivery pipeline. It allows users to define and manage the stages of their software delivery process. The plugin is written in Java and is part of the Maven ecosystem. The affected package is 'se.diabol.jenkins.pipeline:delivery-pipeline-plugin'.
Vulnerability Detail
The Jenkins Delivery Pipeline Plugin version 1.0.7 and earlier is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. The plugin uses the unescaped content of the 'fullscreen' query parameter in its JavaScript, making it susceptible to XSS attacks through specially crafted URLs. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious scripts into the plugin's web interface, potentially leading to unauthorized access, data theft, or other malicious activities. Version 1.0.8 of the plugin addresses this issue by converting the 'fullscreen' value to a boolean (true/false) and securely inserting it into the page.
