AI-suggested
Users should upgrade Apache Superset to version 4.1.0 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. Additionally, configuring Postgres analytic database connections with a read-only user prevents exploitation. No other mitigation is indicated by the vendor advisory.
Description
Apache Superset before version 4.1.0 contains an improper authorization vulnerability in SQLLab when used with Postgres analytic databases. An attacker with SQLLab access can craft a SQL DML statement that is incorrectly identified as read-only, allowing unauthorized write operations. This issue does not affect non-Postgres analytic databases or Postgres connections configured with a read-only user. The vulnerability is fixed in Apache Superset version 4.1.0.
