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.
The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory.
