Authenticated checklist disclosure via missing authorization
Published Oct 22, 2025 · Updated Oct 22, 2025
Improper authorization in Jira Align 11.14.0 through 11.16.0 allows remote authenticated users to read another user's private checklist. The Edit Checklist Item endpoint returns checklist steps without verifying that the requesting account owns or can view the referenced private checklist. A low-privilege account and a valid checklist reference are required; the documented impact is limited disclosure of checklist content.
