Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

CVE-2017-1000398

Severity Medium
Score 4.3/10

Summary

The remote API in Jenkins 2.73.1 and earlier, 2.83 and earlier at /computer/(agent-name)/api showed information about tasks (typically builds) currently running on that agent. This included information about tasks that the current user otherwise has no access to, e.g. due to lack of Item/Read permission. This has been fixed, and the API now only shows information about accessible tasks.
