Published by the GitHub Advisory Database at 22 Sept 2026, 20:34 UTC. agentprime has not analysed this yet, so whether it affects any app is not known.

## Affected packages

- `mcp-atlassian` (PyPI): affected `<0.22.0`; fixed in `0.22.0`

## Machine-written summary

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

> The mcp-atlassian PyPI package, versions before 0.22.0, does not fully enforce the JIRA_PROJECTS_FILTER and CONFLUENCE_SPACES_FILTER restrictions. An attacker who can send queries to the MCP server, such as a prompt-injected LLM agent, can read content from Jira or Confluence projects and spaces outside the operator's allowlist. Upgrade to mcp-atlassian 0.22.0 or later. The source gives few details on any workaround other than restricting untrusted MCP client input.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-w66g-j6c4-hcfc>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
