Defenders should prioritize verifying exposure and applying the patch to prevent potential data disclosure.

Recommended defensive actions

• Verify exposure by checking the MCP Atlassian version and configuration
• Apply the patch to version 0.22.0 or later
• Monitor for potential data disclosure
• Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
• Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
• Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
• Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
