CVE-2023-39265: Apache Superset: Possible Unauthorized Registration of SQLite Database Connections


From: Daniel Gaspar <dpgaspar () apache org>
Date: Wed, 06 Sep 2023 09:34:41 +0000

Affected versions:

- Apache Superset through 2.1.0

Description:

Apache Superset would allow for SQLite database connections to be incorrectly registered when an attacker uses 
alternative driver names like sqlite+pysqlite or by using database imports. This could allow for unexpected file 
creation on Superset webservers. Additionally, if Apache Superset is using a SQLite database for its metadata (not 
advised for production use) it could result in more severe vulnerabilities related to confidentiality and integrity. 
This vulnerability exists in Apache Superset versions up to and including 2.1.0.
