Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • EPSS is 0.52% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Jenkins Project Jenkins and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: Within 30 daysRemediation target: Within 180 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

Cross-source reconciliation

Remediation availability differs by product scope

Verified remediation exists for at least one product or source, but 3 structured product or package states remain unresolved. Apply remediation only to the exact product branch confirmed by its source.

CVE-2026-84647 · CSAF 2.0 · revision 3 · finalRed Hat Product SecurityStapler: Jenkins: Stapler: Unintended configuration object instantiation via form data binding
3 known affected

The vendor explicitly identifies these products as affected by this CVE.

  • jenkins.src as a component of OpenShift Developer Tools and Services
  • ocp-tools-4/jenkins-rhel8 as a component of OpenShift Developer Tools and Services
  • ocp-tools-4/jenkins-rhel9 as a component of OpenShift Developer Tools and Services
Summary
A flaw was found in Stapler, a web framework included in Jenkins. This vulnerability allows an attacker with 'Overall/Read' permission to instantiate objects related to configuration through form data binding. The system does not properly restrict the types of objects that can be created, enabling the attacker to instantiate types for which the field was not intended. This could lead to unauthorized manipulation of system configurations.
Remediation
Restrict Overall/Read to the minimum set of trusted users; don't grant it to broad or anonymous groups. That permission is the flaw's own precondition for exploitation, so removing it from untrusted accounts closes this specific path. No other workaround is documented; the fix requires an updated Stapler.

01

What, why and how

In Stapler 2107.v8dfcb_e8ed317 and earlier, except 2088.2093.vd7c3e58008a_6, included in Jenkins 2.579 and earlier, LTS 2.568.2 and earlier, Stapler does not restrict the types of objects that can be instantiated via form data binding to those compatible with the expected field type, allowing attackers with Overall/Read permission to instantiate types related to configuration for which that field type was not intended.

What

In Stapler 2107.v8dfcb_e8ed317 and earlier, except 2088.2093.vd7c3e58008a_6, included in Jenkins 2.579 and earlier, LTS 2.568.2 and earlier, Stapler does not restrict the types of objects that can be instantiated via form data binding to those compatible with the expected field type, allowing attackers with Overall/Read permission to instantiate types related to configuration for which that field type was not intended.

Why

Attacker-influenced serialised data is reconstructed as trusted objects, which can invoke dangerous application behaviour.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data. The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Patch and workaround

Operational remediation based on structured source evidence.

Status
?Patch availability is based on structured fixed-version fields and authoritative update references. If no fix is verified, check the vendor advisory before making a change.
Fix availability varies by product
Affected
Fixed
Jenkins: 2.580 < *, 2.568.3 < 2.568.*
Action
Use the product-specific evidence above. Patch only products with a verified fixed release, and keep every affected or under-investigation state without a matching fix in the remediation queue.
Workaround
Restrict Overall/Read to the minimum set of trusted users; don't grant it to broad or anonymous groups. That permission is the flaw's own precondition for exploitation, so removing it from untrusted accounts closes this specific path. No other workaround is documented; the fix requires an updated Stapler.
