Threat database

OpenMetadata through 2.0.2 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the URLValidator.validateURL function that fails to properly resolve DNS hostnames and validate internal addresses. Users permitted to create or update EventSubscription can set webhook destinations to internal hosts, allowing the server to send requests to private networks and cloud metadata endpoints while returning HTTP status codes that enable blind SSRF probing.

OpenMetadata versions prior to 2.0.0 contain an open redirect vulnerability where the application accepts a user-supplied post-authentication redirect URL without validation. This allows an attacker to craft a URL that redirects users to an attacker-controlled site along with a valid JWT token tied to the user's account. Version 2.0.0 removes this vulnerable callback parameter, mitigating the issue.

OpenMetadata is a unified metadata platform. Prior to version 1.12.4, a non-admin SSO user can trigger a TEST_CONNECTION workflow for a Database Service and receive, in the HTTP 201 response of POST /api/v1/automations/workflows, both the cleartext database password in request.connection.config.password and the ingestion bot JWT in openMetadataServerConnection.securityConfig.jwtToken. The leaked ingestion-bot token can then be reused as Authorization: Bearer <jwt> to access sensitive service APIs with bot-level privileges. This issue has been patched in version 1.12.4.

OpenMetadata is a unified metadata platform. Prior to 1.11.8, calls issued by the UI against /api/v1/ingestionPipelines leak JWTs used by ingestion-bot for certain services (Glue / Redshift / Postgres). Any read-only user can gain access to a highly privileged account, typically which has the Ingestion Bot Role. This enables destructive changes in OpenMetadata instances, and potential data leakage (e.g.sample data, or service metadata which would be unavailable per roles/policies). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.11.8.

OpenMetadata is a unified metadata platform. Versions 1.5.0 through 1.11.3 are vulnerable to remote code execution via Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) in FreeMarker email templates. An attacker must have administrative privileges to exploit the vulnerability. Version 1.11.4 contains a patch.
