Jenkins developers report:

The agent to master security subsystem ensures that the Jenkins master is protected from maliciously configured agents. A path traversal vulnerability allowed agents to escape whitelisted directories to read and write to files they should not be able to access.

Black Duck Hub Plugin's API endpoint was affected by an XML External Entity (XXE) processing vulnerability. This allowed an attacker with Overall/Read access to have Jenkins parse a maliciously crafted file that uses external entities for extraction of secrets from the Jenkins master, server-side request forgery, or denial-of-service attacks.

Several other lower severity issues were reported, see reference url for details.
