Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in Apache Spark via crafted URL

GHSA-8cw6-5qvp-q3wj · CVE-2018-8024

Published · Modified

Description

In Apache Spark 2.1.0 to 2.1.2, 2.2.0 to 2.2.1, and 2.3.0, it's possible for a malicious user to construct a URL pointing to a Spark cluster's UI's job and stage info pages, and if a user can be tricked into accessing the URL, can be used to cause script to execute and expose information from the user's view of the Spark UI. While some browsers like recent versions of Chrome and Safari are able to block this type of attack, current versions of Firefox (and possibly others) do not.
