CVE-2018-8012
CVSS v2.0
7.8
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:C/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache ZooKeeper versions 3.5.0-alpha through 3.5.3-beta
Apache ZooKeeper versions prior to 3.4.10
Description
The issue arises from the lack of authentication when a server attempts to join a quorum in Apache ZooKeeper. This allows an arbitrary endpoint to join the cluster and propagate counterfeit changes to the leader. An attacker could exploit this to write arbitrary files to the operating system of a vulnerable device.
Recommendations
For Apache ZooKeeper versions prior to 3.4.10, update to version 3.4.10 or later.
For Apache ZooKeeper versions 3.5.0-alpha through 3.5.3-beta, update to a version later than 3.5.3-beta.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the quorum to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
Missing Authorization
