CVE-2022-46365 is a critical-severity improper input validation vulnerability in Apache StreamPark (incubating) from Apache, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.1 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists version 2.0.0 as the first without the flaw, so updating Apache StreamPark (incubating) to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 1.47% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 74% of scored CVEs.

Patch this week

Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.

What to do

  1. Update Apache StreamPark (incubating) to 2.0.0 or a later version.
  2. Update streampark to 2.0.0 or a later version.
  3. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description

Apache StreamPark 1.0.0 before 2.0.0 When the user successfully logs in, to modify his profile, the username will be passed to the server-layer as a parameter, but not verified whether the user name is the currently logged user and whether the user is legal, This will allow malicious attackers to send any username to modify and reset the account, Users of the affected versions should upgrade to Apache StreamPark 2.0.0 or later.

The underlying weakness: Improper Input Validation

The product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Consider using language-theoretic security (LangSec) techniques that characterize inputs using a formal language and build recognizers for that language. This effectively requires parsing to be a distinct layer that effectively enforces a boundary between raw input and internal data representations, instead of allowing parser code to be scattered throughout the program, where it could be subject to errors or inconsistencies that create weaknesses.
  • Use an input validation framework such as Struts or the OWASP ESAPI Validation API. Note that using a framework does not automatically address all input validation problems; be mindful of weaknesses that could arise from misusing the framework itself (CWE-1173).
  • Understand all the potential areas where untrusted inputs can enter the product, including but not limited to: parameters or arguments, cookies, anything read from the network, environment variables, reverse DNS lookups, query results, request headers, URL components, e-mail, files, filenames, databases, and any external systems that provide data to the application. Remember that such inputs may be obtained indirectly through API calls.
