CVE-2016-9299: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an LDAP Query ('LDAP Injection')

May 14, 2022 (updated July 6, 2022)

The remoting module in Jenkins before 2.32 and LTS before 2.19.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java object, which triggers an LDAP query to a third-party server.
