Synopsis

Atlassian Jira 8.6.0 < 8.6.1 Comment Permissions Broken Access Control

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the instance of Atlassian Jira hosted on the remote web server is prior to version 7.13.12, 8.0.0 prior to 8.5.4 or 8.6.0 prior to 8.6.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability which permits remote attackers to make comments on a ticket to which they do not have commenting permissions via a broken access control bug.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Atlassian Jira version 8.6.1 or later.
