What is CVE-2019-16541?

The Jenkins JIRA Plugin prior to version 3.0.11 fails to set the appropriate scope for per-folder JIRA site definitions. This flaw allows users to select credentials that have System scope instead of the intended folder scope, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information and administrative privileges. This vulnerability poses a risk to Jenkins installations utilizing the JIRA Plugin, as it undermines the principle of least privilege.
