Hitachi Vantara Pentaho BA Server contains a use of non-canonical URL paths for authorization decisions vulnerability that enables an attacker to bypass authorization.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho BA Server contains a special element injection vulnerability that allows an attacker to inject Spring templates into properties files, allowing for arbitrary command execution.

Overview

The product specifies permissions for a security-critical resource in a way that allows that resource to be read or modified by unintended actors. (CWE-732)

Description

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 10.2.0.2, including 9.3.x and 8.3.x, is installed with Karaf JMX beans enabled and accessible by default.

Impact

When the vulnerability is leveraged, a user with local execution privileges can access functionality exposed by Karaf beans contained in the product.

The product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check. This allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. (CWE-863)

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.0 and 9.3.0.9, including 8.3.x, have modules enabled by default that allow execution of system level processes.

When access control checks are incorrectly applied, users can access data or perform actions that they should not be allowed to perform. This can lead to a wide range of problems, including information exposures and denial of service.

The product does not handle or incorrectly handles when it has insufficient privileges to access resources or functionality as specified by their permissions. This may cause it to follow unexpected code paths that may leave the product in an invalid state. (CWE-280)

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.0 and 9.3.0.9, including 8.3.x, do not handle invalid and missing permissions correctly, resulting in a denial of service.

An adversary leverages a legitimate capability of an application in such a way as to achieve a negative technical impact.

The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action. (CWE-862)

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.0 and 9.3.0.8, including 8.3.x, do not correctly perform an authorization check in the data source management service.

When access control checks are incorrectly applied, users can access data or perform actions that they should not be allowed to perform. This can lead to a wide range of problems, including information exposures and denial of service.

The application deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently verifying that the resulting data will be valid. (CWE-502)

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.0 and 9.3.0.9, including 8.3.x, deserialize untrusted JSON data without constraining the parser to approved classes and methods.

When developers place no restrictions on "gadget chains," or series of instances and method invocations that can self-execute during the deserialization process (i.e., before the object is returned to the caller), it is sometimes possible for attackers to leverage them to perform unauthorized actions.

The product implements access controls via a policy or other feature with the intention to disable or restrict accesses (reads and/or writes) to assets in a system from untrusted agents. However, implemented access controls lack required granularity, which renders the control policy too broad because it allows accesses from unauthorized agents to the security-sensitive assets. (CWE-1220)

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 10.2.0.0 and 9.3.0.9, including 8.3.x, do not correctly perform an authorization check in the user console trash content

An attacker exploits a weakness in the configuration of access controls and is able to bypass the intended protection that these measures guard against and thereby obtain unauthorized access to the system or network.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x cannot allow a system administrator to disable scripting capabilities of Pentaho Reports (.prpt) through the JVM script manager.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x do not correctly perform an authorization check in the data source management service.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.4.0.0 and 9.3.0.1, including 8.3.x, using the Pentaho Data Access plugin exposes a service endpoint for CSV import which allows a user supplied path to access resources that are out of bounds.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x is installed with a sample HSQLDB data source configured with stored procedures enabled.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x do not correctly protect the Post Analysis service endpoint of the data access plugin against out-of-band XML External Entity Reference.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x cannot allow a system administrator to disable scripting capabilities of the Community Dashboard Editor (CDE) plugin.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.4.0.0 and 9.3.0.1, including 8.3.x with the Big Data Plugin expose the username and password of clusters in clear text into system logs.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 9.4.0.0 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x display the target path on host when a file is uploaded with an invalid character in its name.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 9.4.0.0 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x display the full parametrized SQL query in an error message when an invalid character is used within a Pentaho Report (.prpt).

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server prior to versions 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.2, including 8.3.x allow a malicious URL to inject content into the Pentaho User Console through session variables.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.3, including 8.3.x expose dashboard prompts to users who are not part of the authorization list.

Hitachi Vantara Pentaho Business Analytics Server versions before 9.4.0.1 and 9.3.0.3, including 8.3.x deserialize untrusted JSON data without constraining the parser to approved classes and methods.
