## Machine-written summary

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

> The Jenkins EC2 Fleet Plugin (com.amazon.jenkins.fleet:ec2-fleet) versions 4.2.3.539 and earlier are affected. An attacker with Overall/Read permission can exploit missing permission checks in several HTTP endpoints used to validate cloud configurations to send requests to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credential IDs, capturing AWS credentials stored in Jenkins. The endpoints also accept non-POST requests, which enables cross-site request forgery. Upgrade to version 4.2.3.540.va, which requires Overall/Administer permission and POST requests for these actions.

## 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-9v77-j4xv-34gq>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
