Summary

In Apache Storm's Logviewer, the `logs.users` and `logs.groups` access controls were not applied to daemon logs — the authorization decision was overridden by the "this is a daemon log" flag, and the daemon log page and download endpoints reached the handler without consulting an authorizer at all. Additionally, the `/listLogs` and `/searchLogs` endpoints accepted a user argument but never applied it, returning every tenant's log file names. The issue was fixed in version 3.1.0.

Risk Assessment

Any user able to pass the configured servlet filter could read `nimbus.log`, `supervisor.log` and other daemon logs on every reachable node, exposing other tenants' topology names, owners and configuration fragments. No configuration existed that closed this behavior.

Recommendation

Upgrade Apache Storm to version 3.1.0, where daemon log paths evaluate the configured user and group lists and the listing endpoints filter by the requesting user. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, place the Logviewer behind a reverse proxy that restricts the daemon log endpoints and treat daemon log content as readable by any filter-authenticated user.

Original NVD description (English source)

Description The Logviewer offers `logs.users` and `logs.groups` so operators can control who may read log content. For daemon logs those settings were not applied: the access decision combined the "this is a daemon log" flag with the authorizer result in a way that discarded the authorizer's answer whenever the flag was set, and the daemon log page and download endpoints reached the handler without consulting an authorizer at all. Any user able to pass the configured servlet filter could therefore read `nimbus.log`, `supervisor.log` and the other daemon logs on every reachable node, which contain other tenants' topology names, owners and configuration fragments. The same advisory covers the log listing endpoints, which accepted a user argument and never applied it, so `/listLogs` and `/searchLogs` returned every tenant's topology and worker log file names regardless of the caller. That part is metadata only. There was no configuration that closed either behaviour. Mitigation Upgrade to 3.1.0, where the daemon log paths evaluate the same configured user and group lists that the worker log paths already used, and the listing endpoints filter by the requesting user. Users who cannot upgrade immediately should place the Logviewer behind a reverse proxy that restricts the daemon log endpoints, and should treat daemon log content as readable by any filter-authenticated user.
