Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2015-5237
DESCRIPTION: Google Protocol Buffers could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an integer overflow in MessageLite::SerializeToString. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable system or cause a denial of service.
CVSS Base Score: 6.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/105989 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)

 

CVEID: CVE-2017-3162
DESCRIPTION: Apache Hadoop could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the interaction between HDFS clients and a servlet on the DataNode to browse the HDFS namespace. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to bypass security restrictions.
CVSS Base Score: 5.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/125388 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N)

 

CVEID: CVE-2017-3161
DESCRIPTION: Apache Hadoop is vulnerable to cross-site scripting, caused by improper validation of user-supplied input by the HDFS web UI. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability using the unescaped query parameter in a specially-crafted URL to execute script in a victim''s Web browser within the security context of the hosting Web site, once the URL is clicked. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim''s cookie-based authentication credentials.

CVEID: CVE-2017-15713
DESCRIPTION: Apache Hadoop could allow a remote authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information. By using a specially-crafted file, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose private files.
CVSS Base Score: 4.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/138064 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)

 

CVEID: CVE-2016-6811
DESCRIPTION: Apache Hadoop could allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system. By escalating to yarn user, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands on the system with root privileges.
CVSS Base Score: 8.4
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/142610 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)

 

CVEID: CVE-2016-5001
DESCRIPTION: Apache Hadoop could allow a local authenticated attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by a flaw in the short-circuit reads feature. By using a specially-crafted block token, a local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base Score: 5.5
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/131248 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N)
