XML External Entity Reference vulnerability in Jenkins Pipeline: Phoenix AutoTest Plugin
Jenkins Pipeline: Phoenix AutoTest Plugin 1.3 and earlier does not configure its XML parser to prevent XML external entity (XXE) attacks.
This allows attackers able to control the input files for the readXml or writeXml build step to have Jenkins parse a crafted file that uses external entities for extraction of secrets from the Jenkins controller or server-side request forgery.
