Machine-written summary

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

Jenkins Credentials Binding Plugin versions 719.v80e905ef14eb_ and earlier do not sanitize file names for file and zip file credentials. An attacker who can supply credentials for a job can write files to arbitrary locations on the node filesystem, which can lead to remote code execution if a low-privileged user is allowed to configure such credentials for a job running on the built-in node. Upgrade to version 720.v3f6decef43ea or later.
