NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jenkins.src package and not the jenkins.src package as distributed by RHEL.

Jenkins 2.286 and earlier, LTS 2.277.1 and earlier does not properly check that a newly created view has an allowed name, allowing attackers with View/Create permission to create views with invalid or already-used names.
