Atlassian Companion Man-in-the-Middle - CVE-2019-15006
Severity:
Atlassian rates the severity level of this vulnerability as medium, according
to the scale published in our Atlassian severity levels. The scale allows us to
rank the severity as critical, high, moderate or low.
This is our assessment and you should evaluate its applicability to your own IT
environment.
Description:
There was a man-in-the-middle (MITM) vulnerability present in the Confluence
Previews plugin in Confluence Server and Confluence Data Center. This plugin was
used to facilitate communication with the Atlassian Companion application. The
Confluence Previews plugin in Confluence Server and Confluence Data Center
communicated with the Companion application via the
atlassian-domain-for-localhost-connections-only.com domain name, the DNS A
record of which points at 127.0.0.1. Additionally, a signed certificate for the
domain was publicly distributed with the Companion application. An attacker in
the position to control DNS resolution of their victim could carry out a
man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack between Confluence Server (or Confluence Data
Center) and the atlassian-domain-for-localhost-connections-only.com domain
intended to be used with the Companion application. This certificate has been
revoked, however, usage of the
atlassian-domain-for-localhost-connections-only.com domain name was still
present in Confluence Server and Confluence Data Center. An attacker could
perform the described attack by denying their victim access to certificate
revocation information, and carry out a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack to
observe files being edited using the Companion application and/or modify them,
and access some limited user information.
Versions of Confluence Server and Data Center from version 6.11.0 before 6.13.10
(the fixed version for 6.13.x), from version 6.14.0 before 6.15.10 (the fixed
version for 6.15.x), from version 7.0.1 before 7.0.5 (the fixed version for
7.0.x), from version 7.1.0 before 7.1.2 (the fixed version for 7.1.x), and from
version 7.2.0-beta1 before 7.2.0 (the fixed version for 7.2.x) are affected by
this vulnerability. This issue can be tracked at:
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-59244 .
Fix:
To address this issue, we've released the following versions containing a fix:
* Confluence Server and Data Center version 6.13.10
