We have noticed if we change the host header in HTTP request for Jenkins and fire the request then Jenkins is vulnerable through http host header injection.

Change the Jenkins request host header to say xyz.com, then it successfully redirects to xyz.com.

How do we address this vulnerability of Jenkins?

https://www.jenkins.io/security/#reporting-vulnerabilities explains how to report security issues.

Please make sure in your report to explain why it is a problem for Jenkins beyond linking to the top Google result. We've previously looked into it and determined that this is unlikely to cause real issues, and have prioritized related improvements accordingly.
