CVE-2023-40610
Improper authorization check and possible privilege escalation on Apache Superset up to but excluding 2.1.2.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.33%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Improper authorization check and possible privilege escalation on Apache Superset up to but excluding 2.1.2. Using the default examples database connection that allows access to both the examples schema and Apache Superset's metadata database, an attacker using a specially crafted CTE SQL statement could change data on the metadata database. This weakness could result on tampering with the authentication/authorization data.
