CVE-2026-71896: CWE-863 Incorrect Authorization in Apache Software Foundation Apache DolphinScheduler
Description
An authorization vulnerability in Apache DolphinScheduler allows authenticated users to retrieve other users' account information through the /dolphinscheduler/users/list-all endpoint without the required permissions. The endpoint fails to enforce the necessary authorization checks before returning user account information. As a result, an authenticated user can access account information they are not authorized to view. Successful exploitation may expose sensitive user information and facilitate account enumeration. This issue affects Apache DolphinScheduler: before 3.4.3. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.4.3, which fixes the issue.

Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-71896 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in Apache DolphinScheduler affecting versions prior to 3.4.3. The /dolphinscheduler/users/list-all endpoint does not enforce required authorization checks, allowing any authenticated user to retrieve account information of other users without appropriate permissions. This improper access control violates CWE-863 (Incorrect Authorization). The vulnerability is resolved by upgrading to Apache DolphinScheduler 3.4.3.
Potential Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability allows authenticated users to access sensitive account information of other users that they are not authorized to view. This can lead to privacy breaches and facilitate account enumeration, potentially aiding further attacks or reconnaissance.
Mitigation Recommendations
Users should upgrade Apache DolphinScheduler to version 3.4.3 or later, where this authorization issue is fixed. No other specific mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.
