Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Jenkins Job Configuration History Plugin versions 1227.v7a 79fc4dc01f and earlier

Description The issue is related to the configuration of the XML parser in the Jenkins Job Configuration History Plugin, which does not prevent XML external entity (XXE) attacks. This allows for potential exploitation.
