Fixed Error When Filtering by Project on Shared Filter Page

Status
colour Green title FIXED

Previously, when users entered a project name in the search input, an error page was displayed. After the fix, the system now correctly displays issues or results from the searched project as expected. Additionally, filtering using multiple projects via JQL is now fully supported without errors.

Unauthorized Share Deletion Vulnerability Fixed

Status
colour Green title FIXED

We addressed a critical security issue where users with customer privileges in a Jira Service Desk portal could delete external shares, even without direct Jira access. The vulnerability allowed customers to obtain a valid JWT and delete shares created by Jira administrators, compromising the integrity of shared information. This issue has now been fixed, and external shares are secured from unauthorized deletion. All operations related to shares—list, get, update, delete, and email notifications—have been thoroughly tested and verified to function correctly across different pages and roles.

Unauthorized Modification of Board Card Settings Vulnerability Fixed

Status
colour Green title FIXED

We addressed a security vulnerability where a "customer" user, self-registered on a Jira helpdesk portal, could modify the board card settings in Jira without direct access to the system. The issue allowed attackers to obtain a valid JWT and manipulate the configuration of board cards, compromising the integrity of external shares. This vulnerability has been resolved, ensuring that only authorized users can modify board card layouts, and external attackers are now blocked from altering these settings.

Cross-Instance IDOR Vulnerability Fixed in Jira Share Settings

Status
colour Green title FIXED

We resolved a critical broken access control vulnerability in the Jira external share application that allowed an attacker from one Jira instance to modify external share settings in a different Jira instance. This vulnerability occurred when attackers used the GID (globally unique identifier) of a share to alter settings, such as changing the board configuration, issue displays, and permissions, compromising the confidentiality and integrity of shared data.

With this fix, external share settings are now protected from unauthorized cross-instance modifications, ensuring that only users with proper permissions can alter these settings.

Cross-Instance IDOR Vulnerability Fixed: Unauthorized Access to Jira API Key Usage History

Status
colour Green title FIXED

We fixed a severe cross-instance IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference) vulnerability in the Jira external share application. This flaw allowed attackers to access the API key usage history of any other Jira instance. The issue occurred when an attacker, authenticated in their own Jira instance, could use a JWT to retrieve sensitive information, such as request details, IP addresses, user agents, and API key activity from a victim's Jira instance.

With the fix, the confidentiality of API key usage data is protected, and only authorized users within the same instance can access this sensitive information.

Fixed Issue with allowCreateNewIssue Field Not Set During Share Creation

Status
colour Green title FIXED

We resolved an issue where the allowCreateNewIssue field was not being set during the creation of a new share in Jira. This caused the permission to create new issues via the external share to remain disabled by default. After the fix, the allowCreateNewIssue field is correctly set during share creation, ensuring that the intended permissions are applied consistently.

Custom board - unable to start watching issues

Status
colour Green title FIXED

Previously, attempting to watch issues resulted in an error. This bug has been fixed, and users can now successfully watch all issues on custom boards without errors.

Fixed Dark Mode CSS Styling Issues
