How to fix?

Upgrade org.jenkins-ci.plugins:cvs to version 2.16 or higher.

Overview

org.jenkins-ci.plugins:cvs is a plugin that integrates Jenkins with the Concurrent Versions System using a modified version of the Netbeans cvsclient.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF). CVS Plugin 2.15 and earlier does not require POST requests in several HTTP endpoints, resulting in cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities. This allows attackers to create and manipulate tags, and to connect to an attacker-specified URL.CVS Plugin 2.16 now requires POST requests for the affected HTTP endpoints.
