## Affected packages

- `org.jenkins-ci.plugins:azure-vm-agents` (Maven): affected `<853.v4a`; fixed in `853.v4a`

## Machine-written summary

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

> Jenkins Azure VM Agents Plugin versions before 853.v4a, including 852.v8d35f0960a_43 and earlier, lack permission checks on several HTTP endpoints. An attacker with Overall/Read permission can have Jenkins connect to an attacker-specified Azure Cloud server using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained elsewhere, and the endpoints also accept non-POST requests, enabling cross-site request forgery. Upgrade to version 853.v4a or later, which requires POST requests and the appropriate permissions on these endpoints.

## 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-q77x-cxrq-988j>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
