5.4
CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Several rest inline action resources of Atlassian Activity Streams before version 6.3.0 allows remote authenticated attackers to watch any Confluence page & receive notifications when comments are added to the watched page, and vote & watch JIRA issues that they do not have access to, although they will not receive notifications for the issue, via missing permission checks.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2017-9513 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
