Atlassian JIRA 4.3.x < 5.1.1 Multiple Open Redirect Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 85220

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a web application that is potentially affected by multiple open redirect vulnerabilities.

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the version of Atlassian JIRA hosted on the remote web server is 4.3.x prior to 5.1.1. It is, therefore, potentially affected by multiple open redirect vulnerabilities. A remote attacker, using a crafted URL, can exploit these vulnerabilities to redirect users to external, untrusted websites, allowing further attacks to be conducted.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Atlassian JIRA 5.1.1 or later.
