Daily Cyber News: Self-hosted Atlassian systems need immediate file-access fixes
Eight self-hosted Atlassian Data Center products may expose sensitive files, creating an urgent patching task for administrators. An attacker doesn’t need to log in, but does need to know the target file’s exact name and path. The affected product families include Confluence, Jira, Bitbucket, Bamboo, Crowd, Crucible and Fisheye.
Key context: Internet-facing installations carry the greatest immediate exposure.
Additional detail: The broader lesson is that a login screen doesn’t protect an application from a weakness that can be reached before authentication.
