Summary
Jenkins Active Directory Plugin 2.41 and earlier deserializes data from LDAP referrals without validation. This may lead to processing of untrusted data by the deserialization mechanism.
Risk Assessment
An attacker able to influence LDAP referral content may achieve code execution in the context of the Jenkins server. This could result in takeover of the CI/CD server.
Recommendation
Update the Jenkins Active Directory Plugin to a version newer than 2.41. Until then, limit the ability to manipulate LDAP referrals and monitor for unusual Jenkins server activity.
