Technical description

Atlassian JIRA before 5.0.1; Confluence before 3.5.16, 4.0 before 4.0.7, and 4.1 before 4.1.10; FishEye and Crucible before 2.5.8, 2.6 before 2.6.8, and 2.7 before 2.7.12; Bamboo before 3.3.4 and 3.4.x before 3.4.5; and Crowd before 2.0.9, 2.1 before 2.1.2, 2.2 before 2.2.9, 2.3 before 2.3.7, and 2.4 before 2.4.1 do not properly restrict the capabilities of third-party XML parsers, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via unspecified vectors.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from atlassian. Update bamboo to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
