Jenkins: >> Jenkins >> 2.541.2 Security Vulnerabilities
Jenkins 2.554 and earlier, LTS 2.541.2 and earlier does not safely handle symbolic links during the extraction of .tar and .tar.gz archives, allowing crafted archives to write files to arbitrary locations on the filesystem, restricted only by file system access permissions of the user running Jenkins.
This can be exploited to deploy malicious scripts or plugins on the controller by attackers with Item/Configure permission, or able to control agent processes.

Jenkins 2.442 through 2.554 (both inclusive), LTS 2.426.3 through LTS 2.541.2 (both inclusive) performs origin validation of requests made through the CLI WebSocket endpoint by computing the expected origin for comparison using the Host or X-Forwarded-Host HTTP request headers, making it vulnerable to DNS rebinding attacks that allow bypassing origin validation.
