Details
A vulnerability was found in sooperset MCP Atlassian up to 0.21.x. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is the function OAuthConfig._save_tokens of the file .mcp-atlassian/oauth-.json of the component OAuthConfig. The manipulation of the argument access_token/refresh_token with an unknown input leads to a permission vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-275. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality. The summary by CVE is:
MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, OAuthConfig writes a plaintext fallback file containing access and refresh tokens under the user's .mcp-atlassian directory using process-default permissions. On systems with a permissive umask, same-group or other local users and processes can read the persisted tokens and reuse the associated Atlassian access. The advisory traces the vulnerable input and processing flow through OAuthConfig._save_tokens, ~/.mcp-atlassian/oauth-<client_id>.json, access_token, and refresh_token, which identify the affected entry points, controls, and code paths. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
