Jenkins 2.227 and earlier, LTS 2.204.5 and earlier does not set Content-Security-Policy headers for files uploaded as file parameters to a build, resulting in a stored XSS vulnerability.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
