Key facts

Description

MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, requests to the HTTP MCP endpoint without a per-user identity are allowed to reach tool handlers, which then use globally configured Jira or Confluence credentials. A network caller can perform operations with the operator account's permissions unless the deployment has an independent authentication boundary. The advisory traces the vulnerable input and processing flow through streamable-http, UserTokenMiddleware, _get_fetcher, and global credentials, which identify the affected entry points, controls, and code paths. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
