CWE-200  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade org.jenkins-ci.plugins:script-security to version 1.37 or higher.

Overview

org.jenkins-ci.plugins:script-security allows Jenkins administrators to control what in-process scripts can be run by less-privileged users.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary File Read. Users with the ability to configure sandboxed Groovy scripts are able to use a type coercion feature in Groovy to create new File objects from strings. This allowed reading arbitrary files on the Jenkins master file system. Such a type coercion is now subject to sandbox protection and considered to be a call to the new File(String) constructor for the purpose of in-process script approval.
