Details
Summary
CVE-2024-28848 is a vulnerability affecting OpenMetadata, a platform for discovery, observability, and governance. The vulnerability allows authenticated non-admin users to execute arbitrary system commands on the underlying operating system through the `CompiledRule::validateExpression` method. This is possible because the method evaluates an SpEL expression using an `StandardEvaluationContext`, enabling it to interact with Java classes such as `java.lang.Runtime`. The vulnerability can lead to remote code execution and poses a high risk to organizations as it allows unauthorized individuals to execute arbitrary commands on the system. There is also a missing authorization check in the affected path, allowing any authenticated non-admin user to trigger the vulnerable endpoint.
