MCP Atlassian: Arbitrary file read/exfiltration via upload_attachment missing validate_safe_path()

Published Sep 22, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.7 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, upload_attachment in src/mcp_atlassian/confluence/attachments.py accepts a caller-controlled file_path and opens the selected server-local file without restricting it to the workspace. A permitted Confluence MCP caller can upload the file as an attachment and disclose data readable by the server process. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
