CVE-2018-1999042
A vulnerability exists in Jenkins 2.137 and earlier, 2.121.2 and earlier in XStream2.java that allows attackers to have Jenkins resolve a domain name when deserializing an instance of java.net.URL.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.46%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
