Security News > 2022 > August > Patch critical flaw in Atlassian Bitbucket Server and Data Center! (CVE-2022-36804)
A critical vulnerability in Atlassian Bitbucket Server and Data Center could be exploited by unauthorized attackers to execute malicious code on vulnerable instances.
Bitbucket Server and Data Center are used by software developers around the world for source code revision control, management and hosting.
CVE-2022-36804 is a command injection vulnerability in multiple API endpoints of Bitbucket Server and Data Center.
"An attacker with access to a public repository or with read permissions to a private Bitbucket repository can execute arbitrary code by sending a malicious HTTP request," Atlassian explained.
All versions of Bitbucket Server and Data Center released before versions 7.6.17, 7.17.10, 7.21.4, 8.0.3, 8.1.2, 8.2.2, and 8.3.1 are vulnerable, but Bitbucket installations hosted by Atlassian are not affected.
Of course, nothing's stopping attackers from reverse-engineering the provided patches to glean enough information into the flaw to create a working exploit, so users should act quickly to block this avenue of attack.
