Atlassian fixes four critical RCE vulnerabilities, patch quickly!
2023-12-06 14:51

Atlassian has released security updates for four critical vulnerabilities in its various offerings that could be exploited to execute arbitrary code.

CVE-2022-1471 is a deserialization flaw in the SnakeYAML library for Java that can lead to remote code execution.

The company does not say whether the vulnerabilities have been exploited in the wild, but recommends that users upgrade to the fixed versions as soon as possible.

Temporary mitigations for CVE-2023-22522, CVE-2023-22524 and CVE-2023-22523 are available for users who can't patch immediately.

Atlassian recently patched two vulnerabilities in Confluence Data Center and Server that had been exploited by attackers: a zero-day that stemmed from broken access control, and CVE-2023-22518, a vulnerability that allowed attackers to reset the database of vulnerable instances and create a Confluence instance administrator account.
