CVE-2015-1836

HIGH 7.3EPSS 7.42%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (7.42%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Apache HBase 0.98 before 0.98.12.1, 1.0 before 1.0.1.1, and 1.1 before 1.1.0.1, as used in IBM InfoSphere BigInsights 3.0, 3.0.0.1, and 3.0.0.2 and other products, uses incorrect ACLs for ZooKeeper coordination state, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage), obtain sensitive information, or modify data via unspecified client traffic.
