high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 409163

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Broken Authentication in Atlassian Connect Spring Boot (ACSB) in version 1.1.0 before 2.1.3 and from
version 2.1.4 before 2.1.5: Atlassian Connect Spring Boot is a Java Spring Boot package for building
Atlassian Connect apps. Authentication between Atlassian products and the Atlassian Connect Spring Boot
app occurs with a server-to-server JWT or a context JWT. Atlassian Connect Spring Boot versions 1.1.0
before 2.1.3 and versions 2.1.4 before 2.1.5 erroneously accept context JWTs in lifecycle endpoints (such
as installation) where only server-to-server JWTs should be accepted, permitting an attacker to send
authenticated re-installation events to an app. (CVE-2021-26077)
