Descriptions

For versions of Apache Knox from 0.2.0 to 0.11.0 - an authenticated user may use a specially crafted URL to impersonate another user while accessing WebHDFS through Apache Knox. This may result in escalated privileges and unauthorized data access. While this activity is audit logged and can be easily associated with the authenticated user, this is still a serious security issue. All users are recommended to upgrade to the Apache Knox 0.12.0 release.

Para versiones de Apache Knox desde 0.2.0 hasta 0.11.0, un usuario autenticado puede usar una URL especialmente diseñada para suplantar a otro usuario mientras accede a WebHDFS por medio de Apache Knox. Esto puede resultar en privilegios escalados y acceso a datos no autorizados. Mientras esta actividad está registrada como auditoría y puede ser asociada fácilmente con el usuario autenticado, esto sigue siendo un problema de seguridad serio. Se recomienda a todos los usuarios actualizar a la versión Apache Knox versión 0.12.0.
