Jenkins Active Choices Plugin HTML Injection Vulnerability



Active Choices Plugin for Jenkins is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.

Successful exploits will result in the execution of arbitrary attacker-supplied HTML and script code in the context of the affected application, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or control how the page is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

Active Choices Plugin 1.5.3 and prior versions are vulnerable.
