CVE-2023-37960: Jenkins MathWorks Polyspace Plugin vulnerable to arbitrary file read

Jenkins MathWorks Polyspace Plugin 1.0.5 and earlier does not restrict the path of the attached files in Polyspace Notification post-build step.

This allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to send emails with arbitrary files from the Jenkins controller file system.

Root Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from improper path validation in the Polyspace Notification post-build step. The description explicitly states that the plugin does not restrict the path of attached files, which aligns with CWE-22 (Path Traversal). The most logical location for this flaw would be in the attachment handling logic of the post-build notifier. Jenkins plugin patterns suggest this would be implemented in a method like handleAttachments within the PolyspaceNotifier class, which would process user-supplied file paths without proper sanitization. The high confidence comes from the direct match between the vulnerability description and typical Jenkins plugin implementation patterns for file attachment handling in post-build steps.
