Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability centers on an unauthenticated HTTP endpoint. Jenkins plugin endpoints typically use 'do[Action]' naming conventions in configuration classes. The credential exfiltration would require a connection testing mechanism, making doTestConnection the logical vulnerable endpoint. The patch would have added a checkPermission(Jenkins.ADMINISTER) call in this method, which aligns with the advisory's mitigation description. While the exact code isn't shown, Jenkins security patterns and the vulnerability description strongly indicate this as the affected endpoint handler.
