We have received a report of a possible unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Jenkins (all versions).

We strongly advise anyone running a Jenkins instance on a public network disable the CLI for now.

As this uses the same attack vector as SECURITY-218, you can reuse the script and instructions published in this repository:
https://github.com/jenkinsci-cert/SECURITY-218

I will update this thread when we have more information.

We have since been able to confirm the vulnerability. It does indeed work as reported, so all Jenkins administrators are advised to secure their instances as described in the previous message.

We are currently preparing out-of-sequence LTS and weekly releases for next Wednesday, November 16, addressing this vulnerability.
