CVE-2026-27099 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in Jenkins Core affecting Jenkins 2.483 through 2.550 inclusive and Jenkins LTS 2.492.1 through 2.541.1 inclusive. The flaw is in the handling of the user-supplied description for the "Mark temporarily offline" offline cause on Jenkins agents/nodes. Since Jenkins 2.483, offline cause descriptions allowed HTML content, but in affected versions that input was not properly escaped before being rendered. An attacker with Agent/Configure or Agent/Disconnect permission can store crafted HTML/JavaScript in the offline cause description, causing script execution in the browsers of other users who view the affected Jenkins UI.
