Jira Core & Jira Service Desk are vulnerable to server-side request forgery after authenticating. In some cases, it is possible to leverage open sign ups in Jira Core or Jira Service Desk to exploit this server-side request forgery flaw without having known credentials.
Impact
The SSRF vulnerability allows attackers to send HTTP requests using any HTTP method, headers and body to arbitrary URLs.
