Last modified
CVE-2016-0791 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Jenkins before 1.650 and LTS before 1.642.2 do not use a constant-time algorithm to verify CSRF tokens, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass a CSRF protection mechanism via a brute-force approach.. EPSS estimates a 2.71% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Description
