Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability centers on insecure XML processing in PostBuildScanDescriptor's configuration handler. Jenkins security advisory explicitly identifies this descriptor class as the vulnerable component, and standard Jenkins plugin patterns indicate configuration handling would be done in a 'configure' method. The XXE vulnerability would manifest when this method parses untrusted XML input without proper security flags like FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING.
