- [scriptApproval.xml](https://issues.jenkins.io/secure/attachment/61242/scriptApproval.xml)

Start with the script-security-plugin and review the attached scriptApproval.xml alongside the original report. Reproduce the approval flow using the reported script, then trace why an already approved script is requested again. Done means the same script runs without another approval request after appearing in the approved scripts section.
