Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Jenkins Distributed Fork plugin version 1.5.0 and earlier

Description: A security issue was discovered in the Distributed Fork plugin for Jenkins, where permission checks were not properly performed before and including version 1.5.0. This allowed individuals with Overall/Read permission to execute arbitrary shell commands on all connected nodes using the dist-fork CLI command.

Recommendations: For Jenkins Distributed Fork plugin version 1.5.0 and earlier, consider restricting access to the dist-fork CLI command until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, review and limit the Overall/Read permission to minimize the risk of exploitation.
