Summary

The Jenkins SSH2 Easy Plugin prior to version 1.5 exhibits a permissions management flaw. It fails to adequately verify whether permissions assigned to users are still valid. This oversight may grant users, who were previously assigned specific permissions (like Overall/Manage), access to functionalities they should no longer be entitled to. This vulnerability impacts the integrity of access controls and can lead to unauthorized actions within the Jenkins environment.
