CVE-2022-27201 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Jenkins Semantic Versioning Plugin 1.13 and earlier does not restrict execution of an controller/agent message to agents, and implements no limitations about the file path that can be parsed, allowing attackers able to control agent processes to have Jenkins parse a crafted file that uses external entities for extraction of secrets from the Jenkins controller or server-side request forgery.. EPSS estimates a 1.31% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
