Overview

org.jenkins-ci.plugins:ec2 is a plugin for controlling agents on EC2 or Eucalyptus.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle (MitM). It does not use SSH host key validation when connecting to agents. This lack of validation could be abused using a man-in-the-middle attack to intercept these connections to build agents.
