How to fix?

Upgrade org.jenkins-ci.plugins:ansible-tower to version 0.9.2 or higher.

Overview

org.jenkins-ci.plugins:ansible-tower gives you the ability to run Ansible Tower jobs as a build step.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF). Ansible Tower Plugin did not perform permission checks on a method implementing form validation. This allowed users with Overall/Read access to Jenkins to connect to an attacker-specified URL using attacker-specified credentials IDs obtained through another method, capturing credentials stored in Jenkins.

Additionally, this form validation method did not require POST requests, resulting in a cross-site request forgery vulnerability.

NOTE: This vulnerability has also been identified as: CVE-2019-10311
