Missing Authentication for Critical Function in Apache NiFi

Published Oct 1, 2020 · Updated Aug 4, 2024 · Assigned by apache

Description

In Apache NiFi 1.0.0 to 1.11.4, the NiFi download token (one-time password) mechanism used a fixed cache size and did not authenticate a request to create a download token, only when attempting to use the token to access the content. An unauthenticated user could repeatedly request download tokens, preventing legitimate users from requesting download tokens.
