Technical details
This vulnerability is a path traversal and configuration bypass (CWE-22, CWE-27) resulting from an incomplete fix for a previous vulnerability. An attacker with access to the Kyuubi Server via frontend protocols can bypass the 'kyuubi.session.local.dir.allowlist' server-side configuration. This is achieved by using unprefixed Spark configuration aliases that the server fails to properly validate or restrict. This allows the client to specify local directories outside of the intended allowlist. The issue is resolved in Apache Kyuubi version 1.12.0.
Affected products
