CVE-2022-34177 — Jenkins Pipeline: Input Step security vulnerability
Jenkins Pipeline: Input Step Plugin 448.v37cea_9a_10a_70 and earlier archives files uploaded for `file` parameters for Pipeline `input` steps on the controller as part of build metadata, using the parameter name without sanitization as a relative path inside a build-related directory, allowing attackers able to configure Pipelines to create or replace arbitrary files on the Jenkins controller file system with attacker-specified content.

Matched remediation archetype
Path traversal, unsafe upload, and file handling
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace untrusted filenames, archive entries, URLs, and path segments into read, write, include, extraction, and upload operations.
- Identify filesystem roots, mount permissions, symbolic-link behavior, archive handling, and whether uploaded content is web-accessible or executable.
- Review canonicalization and containment checks across supported operating systems and storage backends.
Remediate safely
- Generate server-side storage identifiers and resolve paths beneath a fixed root using filesystem-aware containment checks.
- Reject absolute, parent-relative, alternate-separator, device, link, and archive entries that escape the intended root.
- Store uploads outside executable or served paths, validate type and size, and use private atomic temporary files.
