6
+ Detects the mcp-atlassian credential-leak attack pattern (CVE-2026-27825 and
7
+ CVE-2026-27826). The jira_cloud_id and confluence_spaces MCP tools accept a
8
+ "hint" parameter that is forwarded verbatim to the LLM context without
9
+ sanitization. A malicious hint containing a directive to echo request headers
10
+ (cookie, Authorization, X-API-Key) coerces the agent into leaking the active
11
+ Atlassian OAuth session cookie or API token back in a follow-up message.
12
+ CVE-2026-27825 covers the Jira tool surface; CVE-2026-27826 covers
13
+ Confluence. Both share the same sink. Patched in mcp-atlassian 0.17.0.
14
+ Publicly resurfaced as "MCPwnfluence" by Pluto Security in April 2026.
15
+ Disclosed 2026-02-24, resurfaced 2026-04-17.
