Description

Atlassian Connect Spring Boot is a Java Spring Boot package for building Atlassian Connect apps. Authentication between Atlassian products and the Atlassian Connect Spring Boot app occurs with a server-to-server JWT or a context JWT. Atlassian Connect Spring Boot version 2.1.4 introduced a regression to query string hash validation in lifecycle endpoints (such as installation), this regression permits an attacker to send authenticated re-installation event to an app using JWTs intended for other endpoints. This is fixed in version 2.1.5.
