Description Sam Fowler 2018-03-27 23:47:02 EDT
The Jenkins Mailer Plugin through version 1.20 is missing a permissions check in the Mailer.java:doSendTestMail() function. Users with Overall/Read access are able to connect to a user-specified mail server with user-specified credentials to send a test email to a user-specified email address. The email subject and body could not be changed. This could result in DoS if, for example, specifying a valid mail server but invalid credentials.

As the same URL did not require POST to be used, it also was vulnerable to cross-site request forgery.
