| Description | Jenkins Matrix Authorization Strategy Plugin 2.0-beta-1 through 3.2.9 (both inclusive) invokes parameterless constructors of classes specified in configuration when deserializing inheritance strategies, without restricting the classes that can be instantiated, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to instantiate arbitrary types, which may lead to information disclosure or other impacts depending on the classes available on the classpath. |
