Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A sandbox bypass vulnerability in Jenkins Pipeline: Shared Groovy Libraries Plugin 552.vd9cc05b8a2e1 and earlier allows attackers with Item/Configure permission to execute arbitrary code on the Jenkins controller JVM using specially crafted library names if a global Pipeline library is already configured.
