Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability documentation explicitly identifies ChefBuilderConfiguration.DescriptorImpl#doTestConnection as the vulnerable method. This is a form validation endpoint that should require administrative privileges (Overall/Administer) but only checks for Overall/Read permission. The CWE-862 (Missing Authorization) classification and multiple advisory sources (Jenkins Security, NVD, GitHub Advisory) all directly reference this method as the attack vector. The pattern matches other Jenkins plugin vulnerabilities where form validation methods lacked proper permission checks.
