Jenkins Fortify Plugin missing permission check
Jenkins Fortify Plugin 22.1.38 and earlier does not perform permission checks in several HTTP endpoints.
This allows attackers with Overall/Read permission to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.
Additionally, these HTTP endpoints do not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability.
Fortify Plugin 22.2.39 requires POST requests and the appropriate permissions for the affected HTTP endpoints.
