Getting Automated Security Advisories for a Jenkins Instance

[Jeff Williams]

Hello all.  This is my first post.

 

I am trying to find an automated way in which we can get the security advisories for our Jenkins instances.  Currently, the only way I know how to see the security advisories for our instances is to use the web interface.  I feel like there is probably some other way in which this information is exposed but, no matter how I search for it, the answer is eluding me.  My goal is to either get our Jenkins instances to automatically let us know when an advisory is in play against the instance or to use some automated tool (that we build if needed) to query what advisories are active against our instances.

 

I hope that makes sense to someone besides me.

Here is an example of what I am talking about:

This is the list of security advisories for a specific Jenkins instance that needs to be addressed.  I would like to automate this so it can be analyzed and / or sent to a team of people that could then determine how best to act on it.
