>            Reporter: Marcus Eriksson
>            Assignee: Marcus Eriksson

>
> When running Apache Cassandra with the following configuration:
> enable_user_defined_functions: true
> enable_scripted_user_defined_functions: true
> enable_user_defined_functions_threads: false 
> it is possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the host. The 
> attacker would need to have enough permissions to create user defined 
> functions in the cluster to be able to exploit this. Note that this 
> configuration is documented as unsafe, and will continue to be considered 
> unsafe after this CVE.
> This issue is being tracked as CASSANDRA-17352
> Mitigation:
> Set `enable_user_defined_functions_threads: true` (this is default)
> or
> 3.0 users should upgrade to 3.0.26
> 3.11 users should upgrade to 3.11.12
> 4.0 users should upgrade to 4.0.2
> Credit:
> This issue was discovered by Omer Kaspi of the JFrog Security vulnerability 
> research team.
