Severity: moderate

Description:

Apache Spark supports end-to-end encryption of RPC connections via 
"spark.authenticate" and "spark.network.crypto.enabled". In versions 3.1.2 and 
earlier, it uses a bespoke mutual authentication protocol that allows for full 
encryption key recovery. After an initial interactive attack, this would allow 
someone to decrypt plaintext traffic offline. Note that this does not affect 
security mechanisms controlled by "spark.authenticate.enableSaslEncryption", 
"spark.io.encryption.enabled", "spark.ssl", "spark.ui.strictTransportSecurity".

Mitigation:

Update to Apache Spark 3.1.3 or later
