CWE-862 - Missing Authorization

Details

An attacker can use this vector to identify valid attachment names for any given issue. This does not require a valid session.

Exploit Proof-of-Concept

Submit a POST to /rest/api/1.0/render with the following body:

{"rendererType":"atlassian-wiki-renderer",
"unrenderedMarkup":"!<ATTACHMENT-NAME>!",
"issueKey":"<ISSUE-KEY>"}

replacing <ISSUE-KEY> with a valid issue key, and <ATTACHMENT-NAME> with a possibly valid attachment name.

A response containing “Unable to render embedded object…” indicates the filename is not valid for the issue.
A response containing “Unable to embed resource…” or a link to the file like “…/secure/attachment/…” indicates the filename is valid.
