According to its self-reported version number, the version of Jenkins running on the remote web server is Jenkins weekly prior to 2.280. It is, therefore, affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability due to a failure in saving the SecurityContext if it is changed more than once in a single request. If the application’s intent is to only allow the user to run with elevated privileges in a small portion of the application, an authenticated remote attacker can leverage this bug to extend those privileges to the rest of the application.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
