SSRF (Server-Side Request Forgery) in mcp-atlassian (CVE-2026-77261)

Summary

SSRF in mcp-atlassian (CVE-2026-77261). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via Location. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.22.0 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Summary

_make_ssrf_safe_hook() blocks HTTP redirects to private/internal IPs by validating the Location header before the client follows a 3xx response. The problem is that this hook is only attached in one of three authentication branches — the header-PAT path. Basic auth and OAuth branches skip it entirely, so if the connected Atlassian server returns a redirect to something like http://169.254.169.254/, the requests session follows it without complaint.

This is an incomplete fix for GHSA-7r34-79r5-rcc9. The hook works fine when it's there — it just isn't there for most production auth configurations.

Details

In src/mcp_atlassian/servers/dependencies.py, three branches construct a fetcher and call _create_and_validate(). Only Branch 1 passes attach_ssrf_hook=True:

# Branch 1 (header PAT) — hook attached
return _create_and_validate(request, spec, header_config, "header_pat",
                             attach_ssrf_hook=True)

# Branch 2 (basic auth) — hook missing
return _create_and_validate(request, spec, user_config, "basic",
                             user_email=user_email)

# Branch 3 (OAuth/PAT) — hook missing
return _create_and_validate(request, spec, user_config, "oauth_pat",
                             user_email=user_email)

attach_ssrf_hook defaults to False, so branches 2 and 3 silently skip the protection. The hook itself (_make_ssrf_safe_hook) is straightforward — it checks response.is_redirect, grabs the `L…

❓ What is the problem

SSRF (CWE-918) exists in mcp-atlassian. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via Location.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of mcp-atlassian. Attack surface: Location / requests / attach_ssrf_hook / False.

🔥 Severity

Severity: High (CVSS 7.1/10). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 0.22.0.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'mcp-atlassian' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify 
    grep -r 'mcp-atlassian' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で mcp-atlassian を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch 
    Upgrade mcp-atlassian to 0.22.0

    ステージング環境で 0.22.0 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify 
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
