What is CVE-2020-2265?

The Coverage/Complexity Scatter Plot Plugin prior to version 1.1.2 fails to properly escape method information in tooltips. This oversight can lead to a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability, which can be exploited by attackers who manage to provide manipulated report files to the post-build step of the Jenkins plugin, potentially allowing for unauthorized actions or data exposure.

Affected Version(s)

Jenkins Coverage/Complexity Scatter Plot Plugin <= 1.1.1
