View recent boards shows boards that all users have viewed instead of board your account viewed

      Issue Summary

      When clicking on the Boards link in the top navigation bar is showing a section of 'Recent Boards'. In Jira Software 8.1.2 and higher (possibly other versions), it appears that this recent board list is no longer showing unique results to each user, but instead it looks like this resource is sharing the recent boards of other JSW users (provided that your account also has access to that same board).

      Environment

      Tested in 8.1.2, 8.2.3 and found this unexpected functionality happens.

      However when trying to replicate in 7.13.1, and 8.0.2, this behavior does not happen. In these older versions each user appears to have their own recent boards values that are only generated by the boards they view.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a new board (AAA project key for this example)
      2. Create a second Jira software licensed user
      3. Login as the newly created 2nd user, and then create a new board with board name (TEST)
      4. In a new browser (incognito) login as user 1 again, then visit the Boards -> recent boards

      Expected Results

      If user #1 has not recently been to board TEST, they should not see it in the recent list

      Actual Results

      User #1 sees TEST board in the recent boards list

      Notes

      This does not appear to leak names of ALL boards exactly. Your user account can still only see in the recent boards entries that your account actually has permissions to see. However this recent board should be bound to the currently logged in user and that is not what appears to be happening right now.

      ^ shows recent boards of other users, not the current user right now

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
