Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The mcp-atlassian package is vulnerable in versions before 0.22.0, and the fix is in 0.22.0. The confluence_upload_attachment tool does not validate the file path it is given, so an authenticated MCP client with edit access to a Confluence page can read arbitrary files from the server and upload their contents as an attachment. This can expose runtime secrets such as API tokens. Upgrade to mcp-atlassian 0.22.0 or later.
