Description

XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability in Jenkins before 1.600 and LTS before 1.596.1 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary XML files via a crafted XML document.

Affected versions

How to fix

Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.
