Documentation for JIRA 4.2. Documentation for other versions of JIRA is available too. 
As a public-facing web application, JIRA's application-level security is important. This document contains links to version-specific security advisories and related documents for the JIRA application.
This document is intended to provide information to system administrators about the security of the JIRA application. It does not address JIRA's internal security model — user management and permissions — except as it relates to the overall application security.
