[CVE-2020-1958]: Apache Druid LDAP injection vulnerability

2020-04-01 Thread Jonathan Wei
Severity: High

Vendor:
The Apache Software Foundation

Versions Affected:
Druid 0.17.0

Description:
When LDAP authentication is enabled:
- Callers of Druid APIs with a valid set of LDAP credentials can bypass the
`credentialsValidator.userSearch` filter barrier that determines if a valid
LDAP user is allowed to authenticate with Druid. They are still subject to
role-based authorization checks, if configured.
- Callers of Druid APIs can retrieve any LDAP attribute values of users
that exist on the LDAP server, so long as that information is visible to
the Druid server. This information disclosure does not require the caller
itself to be a valid LDAP user.

Mitigation:
- Users of Druid 0.17.0 that use LDAP authentication should upgrade to
Druid 0.17.1.

Disclaimer: Apache Druid is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache
Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is
required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates
that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have
stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While
incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or
stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be
fully endorsed by the ASF.
