We have been using jira-steps-plugin in our pipeline like

steps {
    container('curl') {
      jiraNewVersion version: [name: "new-fix-version-1.0", project: "TEST"]
    }
}

We recently changed the certs on our Jira to a XYZ Root ca which breaks the integration with this error

Error Code: -1
Error Message: unable to find valid certification path to requested target 

Now I would like to understand what is the way to fix it:

• Where does the plugin code run if i call a step in a container? is it inside the container or outside
• The plugin is written in Java so i am assuming it uses keystore ?
• If I add my company's root ca cert to keystore of container image curl will this fix the issue?
