Technical details
This vulnerability is a race condition and authorization bypass in the Jenkins Script Security Plugin's classpath handling. The plugin downloads a JAR file specified by URL, validates the download, but then performs a second download of the same JAR without re-validating it before loading the classpath entries. An attacker with permission to define classpath entries can intercept or manipulate the second download to substitute malicious code. The attack requires network-level manipulation (man-in-the-middle) or control over the JAR source, and execution occurs in the Jenkins controller JVM context with full privileges. Jenkins has patched this in version 1422.v06869826dd9b_ and later by implementing proper validation for all JAR loads.
