Jira - Arbitrary File Read (CVE-2020-29453)

Jira is affected by Pre-Authorization Arbitrary File Read vulnerability in the /s/ endpoint. This allows attackers to read sensitive information from the target system by sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request to the vulnerable endpoint. The affected endpoints are /WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/maven/com.atlassian.jira/jira-core/pom.xml and /META-INF/maven/com.atlassian.jira/jira-webapp-dist/pom.xml".

Sniper can read arbitrary files from the target system and extract them as evidence.

The risk exists that a remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read sensitive information from arbitrary files located on the file system of the server.

Upgrade the Jira to the latest version.
