Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
MCP Atlassian versions before 0.22.0 always write a plaintext fallback copy of OAuth access and refresh tokens to a file under the user's home directory, created with default permissions (observed as mode 0664). A local user in the same group, or any process that can read the home directory, could read these tokens and use them for continued Atlassian API access. Upgrade to mcp-atlassian 0.22.0 or later; the source lists no workaround.
