How to fix?

Upgrade org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core to versions 2.32.2, 2.44 or higher.

Overview

org.jenkins-ci.main:jenkins-core is an open-source automation server.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF). When administrators accessed a URL like /user/example via HTTP GET, a user with the ID example was created if it did not exist. While this user record was only retained until restart in most cases, administrator's web browsers could be manipulated to create a large number of user records.
