Technical details
The Kyuubi Engine UI proxy component improperly validates the host and port parameters provided in the request path. A remote attacker with network access to the Kyuubi REST frontend can exploit this to perform Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) or use the server as an open proxy to reach arbitrary network destinations. This can lead to internal network scanning or unauthorized access to internal metadata services. The vulnerability is addressed in version 1.12.0 by disabling the proxy by default and introducing a whitelist configuration ('kyuubi.frontend.rest.engine.ui.proxy.hosts') to restrict allowed destinations.
