Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The Git server Plugin for Jenkins, versions up to and including 99.101.v720e86326c09 (affected versions are listed as below 99.101.v720e86326c09), is vulnerable to arbitrary file read. An attacker with Overall/Read permission can read the first two lines of arbitrary files on the Jenkins controller through SSH Git commands, and the source notes this can lead to remote code execution. Upgrade to version 99.101.v720e86326c09 or later; as a workaround, disable the SSHD Port setting under Manage Jenkins » Security » SSH Server.
