AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, restrict API token exposure and monitor for unauthorized access. Consider disabling HTTP Basic authentication or the "remember me" feature if feasible.

Description

Jenkins versions 2.587 and earlier, including LTS 2.580.1 and earlier, have a vulnerability where HTTP Basic authentication requests, including those using an API token, can obtain a "remember me" cookie. This allows attackers who have obtained a user's API token to maintain access to Jenkins via the "remember me" cookie even after the API token is revoked or expires.
