CVSS 3.1 Score 8.8 of 10 (high)
Details
Summary
CVE-2024-28847 is a vulnerability affecting OpenMetadata, a unified platform for discovery, observability, and governance. This vulnerability allows for remote code execution through the `AlertUtil::validateExpression` function, which is called from several methods including `EventSubscriptionRepository.prepare()`. The issue can be exploited by sending a PUT request to `/api/v1/events/subscriptions`. Although there is an authorization check in place, it occurs after the vulnerable method has been called and the SpEL expression has been evaluated. The potential danger of this vulnerability is high, as it can lead to unauthorized code execution and compromise the integrity and confidentiality of the affected organization's systems. To remediate this vulnerability, users should update to a patched version of OpenMetadata as soon as it becomes available.
