Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.19%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Apache Thrift Java client library versions 0.5.0 through 0.11.0 can bypass SASL negotiation isComplete validation in the org.apache.thrift.transport.TSaslTransport class. An assert used to determine if the SASL handshake had successfully completed could be disabled in production settings making the validation incomplete.
