Description
Jenkins Deployer Framework Plugin 85.v1d1888e8c021 and earlier does not restrict the name of files in methods implementing form validation.
This allows attackers with Item/Read permission to check for the existence of an attacker-specified file path on the Jenkins controller file system.
Deployer Framework Plugin 86.v7b_a_4a_55b_f3ec ensures that only files contained inside the expected directory can be accessed.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.jenkins-ci.plugins:deployer-framework, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update org.jenkins-ci.plugins:deployer-framework to 86.v7b_a_4a_55b_f3ec or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2022-36890 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Resolve every user-supplied path to its canonical form and reject anything that escapes the intended directory, and run the component under an account that has no read or write access outside the directory it legitimately serves.
