CVE-2026-77269: Path Traversal (CVSS 6.5)

Description

MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, the remediation for CVE-2026-27825 protects download destinations but does not constrain source paths used by attachment uploads. A caller can provide an absolute or traversal file_path and cause the server to upload the selected local file. The advisory traces the vulnerable input and processing flow through upload_attachment, file_path, and CVE-2026-27825, which identify the affected entry points, controls, and code paths. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
