Descriptions

The API URL computer/(master)/api/xml in Jenkins before 2.3 and LTS before 1.651.2 allows remote authenticated users with extended read permission for the master node to obtain sensitive information about the global configuration via unspecified vectors.

La URL API computer/(master)/api/xml en Jenkins en versiones anteriores a 2.3 y LTS en versiones anteriores a 1.651.2 permite a usuarios remotos autenticados con permiso avanzado de lectura para el nodo maestro obtener información sensible sobre la configuración global a través de vectores no especificados.

OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat is the company's cloud computing Platform- as-a-Service solution designed for on-premise or private cloud deployments. Jenkins is a continuous integration server that monitors executions of repeated jobs, such as building a software project or jobs run by cron. Security Fix: The Jenkins continuous integration server has been updated to upstream version 1.651.2 LTS that addresses a large number of security issues, including open redirects, a potential denial of service, unsafe handling of user provided environment variables and several instances of sensitive information disclosure.
