Jenkins External Workspace Manager Plugin 1.4.1 and earlier does not perform a permission check (1.4.0 and earlier) or performs an improper permission check (1.4.1) when providing access to externally-managed workspaces through the workspace browser, allowing attackers with Overall/Read permission to read files in workspaces they are not authorized to access.
