Jenkins Warnings Plugin exposures system-scoped credentials
Jenkins Warnings Plugin 10.5.0 and earlier does not set the appropriate context for credentials lookup, allowing the use of system-scoped credentials otherwise reserved for the global configuration.
This allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to access and capture credentials they are not entitled to.
Warnings Plugin 10.5.1 defines the appropriate context for credentials lookup. This fix has been backported to 10.4.1.
