NVD description
MCP Atlassian is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Atlassian products (Confluence and Jira). Prior to 0.22.0, ENABLED_TOOLS and TOOLSETS are applied when tools are listed but are not rechecked when a tools/call request is dispatched. A client that knows a hidden tool name can directly invoke excluded read, write, or delete tools despite the operator's configured least-privilege restrictions. The advisory traces the vulnerable input and processing flow through ENABLED_TOOLS, TOOLSETS, tools/list, tools/call, and _call_tool_mcp, which identify the affected entry points, controls, and code paths. This issue is fixed in version 0.22.0.
