Machine-written summary

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

Affected versions of mcp-atlassian before 0.22.0 do not check that the file_path parameter of the Confluence attachment upload tools stays inside an allowed directory before opening the file. An attacker who can call these tools can read files the MCP server process can access, such as SSH keys or .env files, and upload them to Confluence. Upgrade to mcp-atlassian 0.22.0 or later. The source notes this is an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-27825, which covered downloads but not uploads.
