Jenkins HTML Publisher Plugin 1.32 and earlier does not escape job names, report names, and index page titles shown as part of the report frame, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exploitable by attackers with Item/Configure permission.

Jenkins HTML Publisher Plugin 1.16 through 1.32 (both inclusive) does not properly sanitize input, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to implement cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks and to determine whether a path on the Jenkins controller file system exists.

A path traversal vulnerability exists in Jenkins HTML Publisher Plugin 1.15 and older in HtmlPublisherTarget.java that allows attackers able to configure the HTML Publisher build step to override arbitrary files on the Jenkins master.

HTML Publisher Plugin did not escape the project or build display name shown in the frame HTML page. This resulted in a cross-site scripting vulnerability exploitable by attackers able to control the project or build display name, typically users with Job/Configure or Build/Update permission.

Jenkins HTML Publisher Plugin 1.32 and earlier archives invalid symbolic links in report directories on agents and recreates them on the controller, allowing attackers with Item/Configure permission to determine whether a path on the Jenkins controller file system exists, without being able to access it.
