Apache Spark < 3.2.2 / 3.3.0 < 3.3.1 XSS (CVE-2022-31777)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 182513

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host contains a web application that is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability.

Description

The version of Apache Spark installed on the remote host is prior to 3.2.2 or is 3.3.0. It is, therefore, affected by a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. An authenticated, remote attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the web browser of a user by including a malicious payload into the logs which would be returned in logs rendered in the UI.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade Apache Spark to 3.2.2, 3.3.1, or later.
