What is CVE-2022-29041?

The Jira Plugin for Jenkins, versions 3.7 and earlier (excluding version 3.6.1), contains a vulnerability that allows attackers with Item/Configure permissions to exploit stored cross-site scripting (XSS). This occurs due to inadequate escaping of the name and description parameters related to Jira Issues and Releases, affecting views that display these parameters. Successful exploitation can lead to unauthorized access and potential manipulation of user sessions, making it critical for users to update their plugins to the latest secure version.
