Software firm Atlassian released emergency patches for its popular Confluence Server and Data Center products after reports came to light late last week that attackers were exploiting an unpatched vulnerability in the wild. According to data from Cloudflare’s web application firewall (WAF) service, the attacks started in late May.
The vulnerability, now tracked as CVE-2022-26134, is rated critical and allows unauthenticated attackers to gain remote code execution (RCE) on servers hosting the affected Confluence versions. The company urges customers to upgrade to the newly released versions 7.4.17, 7.13.7, 7.14.3, 7.15.2, 7.16.4, 7.17.4 and 7.18.1, depending on which release they use.
