Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution (RCE) due to missing configuration of the YAML parser to prevent the instantiation of arbitrary types. This is exploitable by users able to configure a multi-configuration (Matrix) job, or control the contents of a previously configured job’s SCM repository.
