CVE-2026-71899: CWE-863 Incorrect Authorization in Apache Software Foundation Apache DolphinScheduler
A missing authorization vulnerability exists in the `query-dynamic-sub-workflows` API of Apache DolphinScheduler. The API does not properly verify whether the authenticated user has permission to access the workflows being queried. An authenticated user who does not have permission to access a specific project can invoke the API with parameters referencing workflows belonging to that project and retrieve workflow information. This allows users to access workflow data outside their authorized project scope, resulting in unauthorized information disclosure. This issue affects Apache DolphinScheduler: from 3.2.0 before 3.4.3. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.4.3, which fixes the issue.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CWE-863) in Apache DolphinScheduler occurs because the `query-dynamic-sub-workflows` API does not correctly enforce authorization checks. Authenticated users can exploit this by querying workflows belonging to projects they are not authorized to access, thereby gaining access to sensitive workflow data outside their permitted scope. The vulnerability affects versions >=3.2.0 and <3.4.3. The Apache Software Foundation has addressed this issue in version 3.4.3.
Potential Impact
Unauthorized users can access workflow information from projects they do not have permission to view. This leads to unauthorized disclosure of potentially sensitive workflow data, which could impact confidentiality within affected environments.
Mitigation Recommendations
Users should upgrade Apache DolphinScheduler to version 3.4.3 or later, where this authorization issue has been fixed. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is indicated in the advisory.
