CVE-2024-28254
CVSS 3.1 Score 8.8 of 10 (high)
Details
Summary
CVE-2024-28254 is a vulnerability in OpenMetadata, a unified platform for discovery, observability, and governance. The vulnerability allows authenticated non-admin users to execute arbitrary system commands on the underlying operating system through an endpoint that passes user-controlled data. This is possible because the `AlertUtil::validateExpression` method evaluates an SpEL expression using `getValue`, which can interact with Java classes like `java.lang.Runtime`. The endpoint does not have proper authorization checks, allowing any authenticated non-admin user to trigger it and execute arbitrary SpEL expressions. This can lead to remote code execution and poses a high danger to organizations using OpenMetadata.
