Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stemmed from unvalidated handling of the 'iconSize' cookie. Key evidence includes:
- The View.java initialization block directly used getCookie() without validation (fixed by wrapping with validateIconSize)
- Jenkins.java's doIconSize endpoint accepted arbitrary query strings for cookie values (fixed by adding validation)
- The getCookie() function itself wasn't inherently vulnerable but was dangerously used without validation in multiple contexts. The high confidence entries represent direct injection points, while getCookie() gets medium confidence as it was a validation-lacking enabler.
