CVE-2026-77244
📛 CVE Title
[mcp-atlassian] Authentication bypass in HTTP transport: AtlassianOpaqueTokenVerifier accepts any non-empty token
Description
MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, the HTTP transport accepts requests without a verified user identity and downstream fetcher construction falls back to the operator's globally configured Jira or Confluence credentials. A network client that can reach the MCP endpoint can invoke Atlassian tools as the operator, including read and write operations available to that account. The advisory traces the vulnerable input and processing flow through UserTokenMiddleware, AtlassianOpaqueTokenVerifier, _get_fetcher, and streamable-http, which identify the affected entry points, controls, and code paths. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.

The MCP Atlassian server allows any non‑empty bearer token to be accepted by AtlassianOpaqueTokenVerifier, effectively bypassing authentication. An attacker who can reach the HTTP endpoint can impersonate the application operator, causing downstream fetcher construction to use the operator's globally configured Jira or Confluence credentials. This enables unauthorized read and write ...
