CVE-2026-92131 — Path Traversal in Jenkins Project Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Libraries Plugin
Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Libraries Plugin 805.va_fc79344957d and earlier does not restrict the library path provided to the library Pipeline step to a relative path inside the SCM checkout, and follows symbolic links to locations outside of the SCM checkout when retrieving the library, resulting in a path traversal vulnerability, allowing attackers able to configure Pipelines to read files in a resources directory and to delete files in a test directory on the Jenkins controller file system.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+2
- Technical severity (medium)+3
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
CISA SSVC assessment CISA
Three decision points CISA publishes for the CVEs it assesses (SSVC 2.0.3). A stakeholder decision, not a severity score.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Jenkins Project Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Libraries Plugin).
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (file handling), errors and authentication anomalies.

Detection
Read off the CVSS vector and the weakness class. Starting points, not tested rules.
- Prioritize edge telemetry for the network-reachable component (proxy, WAF, IDS/IPS).
- Monitor file creation in web directories and paths with traversal sequences (../).

What should defenders know first?
CVE-2026-92131 is "Path Traversal in Jenkins Project Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Libraries Plugin", rated Medium. It affects Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Libraries Plugin (Jenkins Project); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 4.2 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.23% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
