Machine-written summary

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

Jenkins SourceMonitor Plugin version 0.2 and earlier does not configure its XML parser to block XML external entity (XXE) attacks. An attacker who can control the XML input files for the 'Publish SourceMonitor results' post-build step could cause agent processes to parse a crafted file, leading to disclosure of secrets from the Jenkins agent or server or to server-side request forgery. The source notes the impact is real only in narrow cases, where attackers can control XML files but not build steps or other executed code. No fixed version is listed.
