An out-of-bounds write vulnerability in Apache Hadoop HDFS native client. Affects Apache Hadoop from 3.2.0 before 3.4.2. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.4.2, which fixes the issue.
- CVE-2017-3166High
In Apache Hadoop versions 2.6.1 to 2.6.5, 2.7.0 to 2.7.3, and 3.0.0-alpha1, files in encryption zones with world-readable permissions can be localized via YARN's localization mechanism, leading to their storage in a world-readable location.
- CVE-2017-7669High
In Apache Hadoop versions 2.8.0, 3.0.0-alpha1, and 3.0.0-alpha2, the LinuxContainerExecutor runs docker commands as root with insufficient input validation. When the docker feature is enabled, authenticated users can run commands as root.
- CVE-2017-3162High
HDFS clients interact with a servlet on the DataNode to browse the HDFS namespace. The NameNode query parameter is not validated in Apache Hadoop before 2.7.0.
- CVE-2016-6811High
In Apache Hadoop 2.x before 2.7.4, a user who can escalate to yarn user can possibly run arbitrary commands as root user.
- CVE-2016-5393High
In Apache Hadoop versions 2.6.x before 2.6.5 and 2.7.x before 2.7.3, a remote user who can authenticate with the HDFS NameNode can possibly run arbitrary commands with the same privileges as the HDFS service.
- CVE-2012-4449Critical
Apache Hadoop versions before 0.23.4, 1.x before 1.0.4, and 2.x before 2.0.2 generate token passwords using a 20-bit secret when Kerberos security features are enabled. This makes it easier for attackers to crack secret keys via a brute-force attack.
