Loading vulnerability…
A directory traversal vulnerability exists in the Issue Collector plugin in Atlassian JIRA prior to version 6.0.4. The vulnerability allows remote attackers to create arbitrary files on the server by exploiting unspecified vectors, likely involving crafted input that traverses directories outside the intended path.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (jira_collector_traversal.rb) that exploits a directory traversal vulnerability (CVE-2014-2314) in Atlassian JIRA 6.0.3's Issues Collector feature on Windows. The exploit abuses the file upload mechanism to traverse directories and place a malicious JSP dropper in the JIRA web directory. This dropper writes and executes a custom EXE payload, achieving remote code execution. The module is operational, requiring the attacker to specify the JIRA path, collector ID, and traversal depth. The main attack vector is network-based, targeting the JIRA web interface (default port 8080). The code is structured as a typical Metasploit exploit, with functions for checking the target, generating payloads, uploading files via traversal, and executing the payload. The endpoints involved include the JIRA REST API for attachments and the login page for version detection. The exploit is not a detection script or a fake; it is a real, working exploit module for Metasploit.
