CVE-2019-14860: High severity red hat fuse vulnerability

Published Oct 15, 2019
·
Updated

It was found that the Syndesis configuration for Cross-Origin Resource Sharing was set to allow all origins. An attacker could use this lack of protection to conduct phishing attacks and further access unauthorized information.

Other sources

Syndesis, the underlying code to Fuse Online, contains a dangerous default for the CORS "setAllowedOrigins" value, as seen here: - https://github.com/syndesisio/syndesis/blob/master/app/server/runtime/src/main/java/io/syndesis/server/runtime/SecurityConfiguration.java#L95 -- configuration.setAllowedOrigins(Arrays.asList(CorsConfiguration.ALL));

With this default in place, any services built on the platform will be open to phishing style attacks by leveraging the lack of cross origin protection.
