Apache: >> Superset >> 0.13.2 Security Vulnerabilities
A Sensitive Data Exposure vulnerability exists in Apache Superset allowing authenticated users to retrieve sensitive user information. The Tag endpoint (disabled by default) allows users to retrieve a list of objects associated with a specific tag.
When these associated objects include Users, the API response improperly serializes and returns sensitive fields, including password hashes (pbkdf2), email addresses, and login statistics. This vulnerability allows authenticated users with low privileges (e.g., Gamma role) to view sensitive authentication data
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 6.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.0.0, which fixes the issue or make sure TAGGING_SYSTEM is False (Apache Superset current default)

An Improper Input Validation vulnerability exists in Apache Superset that allows an authenticated user with SQLLab access to bypass the read-only verification check when using a PostgreSQL database connection.
While the system effectively blocks standard Data Manipulation Language (DML) statements (e.g., INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) on read-only connections, it fails to detect them in specially crafted SQL statements.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 6.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.0.0, which fixes the issue.

Apache Superset utilizes a configurable dictionary, DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS, to restrict the execution of potentially sensitive SQL functions within SQL Lab and charts. While this feature included restrictions for engines like PostgreSQL, a vulnerability was reported where the default list for the ClickHouse engine was incomplete.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 4.1.2.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.1.2, which fixes the issue.

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Apache Superset allows an authenticated user with read access to conduct error-based SQL injection via the sqlExpression or where parameters.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 6.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.0.0, which fixes the issue.

An Improper Authorization vulnerability exists in Apache Superset that allows a low-privileged user to bypass data access controls. When creating a dataset, Superset enforces permission checks to prevent users from querying unauthorized data. However, an authenticated attacker with permissions to write datasets and read charts can bypass these checks by overwriting the SQL query of an existing dataset.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 6.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.0.0, which fixes the issue.

A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Apache Superset's chart visualization. An authenticated user with permissions to edit charts can inject a malicious payload into a column's label. The payload is not properly sanitized and gets executed in the victim's browser when they hover over the chart, potentially leading to session hijacking or the execution of arbitrary commands on behalf of the user.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 5.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 5.0.0, which fixes the issue.

When a guest user accesses a chart in Apache Superset, the API response from the /chart/data endpoint includes a query field in its payload. This field contains the underlying query, which improperly discloses database schema information, such as table names, to the low-privileged guest user.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 4.1.3.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.1.3, which fixes the issue.

A bypass of the DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS security feature in Apache Superset allows for the execution of blocked SQL functions. An attacker can use a special inline block to circumvent the denylist. This allows a user with SQL Lab access to execute functions that were intended to be disabled, leading to the disclosure of sensitive database information like the software version.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 5.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 5.0.0, which fixes the issue.

Apache Superset contains an improper access control vulnerability in its /explore endpoint. A missing authorization check allows an authenticated user to discover metadata about datasources they do not have permission to access. By iterating through the datasource_id in the URL, an attacker can enumerate and confirm the existence and names of protected datasources, leading to sensitive information disclosure.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 5.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 5.0.0, which fixes the issue.

An authenticated malicious actor using specially crafted requests could bypass row level security configuration by injecting SQL into 'sqlExpression' fields. This allowed the execution of sub-queries to evade parsing defenses ultimately granting unauthorized access to data.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 4.1.2.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.1.2, which fixes the issue.
