Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability explicitly states SSL/TLS validation is unconditionally disabled. In Java applications, this typically involves:
- Overriding TrustManager to accept all certificates
- Disabling hostname verification
- Using SSLContext with insecure settings
While exact code isn't shown, the pattern matches common SSL bypass implementations. The functions listed are core components that would handle HTTP communication configuration in a Jenkins plugin. The 'perform' method is typically where build steps execute, and 'createHttpClient' would be responsible for client configuration - both logical places for SSL settings.
