      The python plugin documentation points to an incorrect repository in its documentation page, which makes it difficult or impossible to evaluate whether there are any security issues with its implementation.  At https://plugins.jenkins.io/python/ its github link is to 
      https://github.com/jenkinsci/scp-plugin , an unrelated project. 

      It seems like this just needs to be `https://github.com/jenkinsci/python-plugin`

          Thanks for reporting the issue. The last commit on that repository from any maintainer of the plugin was over 9 years ago. The last release was 10 years ago. There are much simpler ways to use python in a Jenkins job without using that plugin (sh steps, powershell steps, bat steps).

          In order to fix that issue, a new release of the plugin is required. That would need a maintainer willing to adopt the plugin and deliver a new release. I don't expect that to happen.
