Jenkins 2.587 and earlier, LTS 2.580.1 and earlier does not consistently enforce the restriction on deserializing objects of types marked as storing their configuration in independent top-level configuration files as nested values, allowing attackers to bypass the root element check and potentially inject nested objects.
