Machine-written summary

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

The Jenkins HTML Publisher Plugin (org.jenkins-ci.plugins:htmlpublisher) versions before 427.1 are affected. The plugin does not escape the job name and URL in the legacy wrapper file, which allows a stored cross-site scripting attack by a user with Item/Configure permission. Upgrade to version 427.1, which escapes these values.
