Descriptions

Nacos is a platform designed for dynamic service discovery and configuration and service management. In Nacos before version 1.4.1, the ConfigOpsController lets the user perform management operations like querying the database or even wiping it out. While the /data/remove endpoint is properly protected with the @Secured annotation, the /derby endpoint is not protected and can be openly accessed by unauthenticated users. These endpoints are only valid when using embedded storage (derby DB) so this issue should not affect those installations using external storage (e.g. mysql)

Nacos es una plataforma diseñada para el descubrimiento y la configuración dinámica de servicios y la administración de servicios. En Nacos versiones anteriores a 1.4.1, la función ConfigOpsController permite al usuario llevar a cabo operaciones de administración como consultar la base de datos o incluso borrarla. Si bien el endpoint /data/remove está protegido apropiadamente con la anotación @Secured, el endpoint /derby no está protegido y los usuarios no autenticados pueden acceder a él abiertamente. Estos endpoints solo son válidos cuando se usa almacenamiento integrado (derby DB), por lo que este problema no debería afectar las instalaciones que usan almacenamiento externo (por ejemplo, mysql)
