Subject: CVE-2021-41571: Apache Pulsar: Pulsar Admin API allows access to data
from other tenants using getMessageById API
Severity: moderate
Description:
In Apache Pulsar it is possible to access data from BookKeeper that
does not belong to the topics accessible by the authenticated user.
The Admin API get-message-by-id requires the user to input a topic and
a ledger id. The ledger id is a pointer to the data, and it is
supposed to be a valid id for the topic.
Authorisation controls are performed against the topic name and there
is not proper validation that the ledger id is valid in the context of
such ledger.
So it may happen that the user is able to read from a ledger that
contains data owned by another tenant.
This issue affects Apache Pulsar Apache Pulsar version 2.8.0 and prior
versions; Apache Pulsar version 2.7.3 and prior versions; Apache
Pulsar version 2.6.4 and prior versions.
This issue is being tracked as https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/11814
Mitigation:
If you are running Pulsar behind a proxy you can disable access to the
REST API for the flawed API
/admin/v2/non-persistent/{tenant}/{namespace}/{topic}/ledger/{ledgerId}/entry/{entryId}
