  1. Published22 Sept 2026

Description

MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, validate_safe_path defaults its base directory to os.getcwd(), and affected Confluence attachment call sites omit base_dir, allowing attacker-selected writes within the working directory. This Python module overwrite can provide code execution when the application later imports the modified module, bypassing the remediation tracked as CVE-2026-27825. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
