CVE-2026-21589

CriticalCVSS 9.3
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

An Arbitrary File Access vulnerability in Atlassian products (Bitbucket, Confluence, Crowd, Jira, Bamboo, Crucible, Fisheye) allows an unauthenticated attacker to access specific files within the web application root directory. Exploitation requires prior knowledge of the target file's exact name and path; directory enumeration is not possible. In some configurations, sensitive files may be exposed, making this highly severe.

Risk Assessment

An unauthenticated attacker can read specific files from the application root directory if they know the exact path. If sensitive files are present in the root directory, this may lead to leakage of configuration data or other critical information.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade all affected Atlassian products to the fixed versions listed in the vulnerability description. Additionally, review the web application root directory and remove any unnecessary or sensitive files.
