Even though there are currently no indications of ongoing attacks from the software manufacturer, administrators should update their Atlassian applications to the current version promptly. If this is not done, attackers can, for example, attack Bamboo Data Center and Server with malicious code (CVE-2026-21570 “high”) or disable Jira Data Center and Server via DoS attack (CVE-2022-25927 “high”). Furthermore, unauthorized file access is possible with Jira Service Management Data Center and Server (CVE-2026-23950 “high”). Further information on the closed vulnerabilities can be found in the security section of the Atlassian website.
