References handbook, so #802 should be merged first. CC @jglick


Existing `jenkins-cli.jar` clients should continue working as before, unless an administrator disables the remoting connection mode in _Configure Global Security_.
That said, we recommend you download the new `jenkins-cli.jar` in Jenkins, and use its the new `-http` mode.
This will allow you to disable the remoting mode for the CLI on the Jenkins master to prevent similar vulnerabilities in the future.

It worth mentioning that there are some limitations being compared to the remoting mode

I think that's best left to the full documentation, which I link to.

Great, thanks!

Moving forward, the Jenkins security team is revisiting the design of the Jenkins CLI over the coming weeks to prevent this class of vulnerability in the future.
If you are interested in participating in that discussion, please join in on the jenkinsci-dev@ mailing list.

NIT: using [quote] instead of ----- would feel more idiomatic asciidoc IMO.
