try/catch/finally masks Jenkinsfile problems in case of groovy compiler exceptions

Question

I have code similar to the one below in my Jenkinsfile:

node {
   checkout scm
   // do some stuff
   try {
       // do some maven magic
   } catch (error) {
           


        

Answer 1

This happens when an additional exception is thrown inside the finally block or before the re-throw inside catch. In these cases the RejectedAccessException is swallowed and script-security does not catch it.
