CVE-2026-73497 Details
Description
MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). From 0.17.0 until 0.22.0, validate_url_for_ssrf resolves the attacker-controlled X-Atlassian-Jira-Url and X-Atlassian-Confluence-Url header host once at middleware time, but the outbound request is built with the raw hostname and resolves it again at connection time with no IP pinning. An attacker-controlled DNS-rebinding name can return a public IP during validation and 169.254.169.254 or another internal IP during connection, enabling unauthenticated server-side requests to cloud metadata or internal services. The flaw spans src/mcp_atlassian/utils/urls.py, src/mcp_atlassian/servers/main.py, and src/mcp_atlassian/servers/dependencies.py; validate_url_for_ssrf returns only a verdict rather than a pinned IP, UserTokenMiddleware processes the attacker-controlled headers before fetcher creation, and the Jira and Confluence fetchers use the raw hostname. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability has been identified in MCP Atlassian versions 0.17.0 prior to 0.22.0. The issue arises in the 'validate_url_for_ssrf' function, which processes attacker-controlled 'X-Atlassian-Jira-Url' and 'X-Atlassian-Confluence-Url' headers. The function initially resolves the host at middleware time but fails to pin the IP address, allowing for a DNS-rebinding attack. An attacker can exploit this by returning a public IP during validation and an internal IP, such as '169.254.169.254', during the actual connection, enabling unauthenticated requests to cloud metadata or internal services.
Users can upgrade to MCP Atlassian version 0.22.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
