Jenkins 2.218 and earlier, LTS 2.204.1 and earlier did not use a constant-time comparison function for validating connection secrets, which could potentially allow an attacker to use a timing attack to obtain this secret.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - Jenkins 2.218 and earlier, LTS 2.204.1 and earlier did not use a constant-time comparison function for
    validating connection secrets, which could potentially allow an attacker to use a timing attack to obtain
    this secret. (CVE-2020-2101)

The version of Jenkins running on the remote web server is prior to 2.219 or is a version of Jenkins LTS prior to 2.204.2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - An UDP amplification reflection attack can be used in a DDoS attack     on a Jenkins master. Within the same network, spoofed UDP packets     could also be sent to make two Jenkins masters go into an infinite     loop of replies to one another, thus causing a denial of service.
    (CVE-2020-2100)

  - A non-constant time comparison of inbound TCP agent connection secret     is used when an inbound TCP agent connection is initiated. This allows     attackers to use statistical methods to obtain the connection secret.
    (CVE-2020-2101)

  - A non-constant time HMAC comparison is used when checking whether two     HMACs are equal. This could potentially allow attackers to use     statistical methods to obtain a valid HMAC for an attacker-controlled     input value. (CVE-2020-2102)

  - User metadata on the /whoAmI page includes the HTTP session ID which     allows attackers able to exploit a cross-site scripting vulnerability     to obtain the HTTP session ID value. (CVE-2020-2103)

  - A lack of appropriate permissions allows anyone with Overall/Read     permissions to access the JVM memory usage chart for the Jenkins master.
    (CVE-2020-2104)

  - The Jenkins REST APIs allows an attacker to perform a clickjacking     attack by routing them to a specially crafted web page, and can expose     the content of the REST API endpoint. (CVE-2020-2105)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
