## Affected packages

- `org.jenkins-ci.plugins:dependency-check-jenkins-plugin` (Maven): affected `<5.4.6`; fixed in `5.4.6`

## Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

> The Jenkins OWASP Dependency-Check Plugin (org.jenkins-ci.plugins:dependency-check-jenkins-plugin) versions before 5.4.6 do not escape vulnerability metadata from Dependency-Check reports, which allows stored cross-site scripting. An attacker who can get crafted metadata into a scanned report could run script in the browser of a user who views that report. Upgrade to version 5.4.6 or later.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-9pp4-mx6x-xh36>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
