id: CVE-2024-56512 info: name: Apache NiFi - Information Disclosure author: DhiyaneshDK severity: medium description: | Apache NiFi 1.10.0 through 2.0.0 are missing fine-grained authorization checking for Parameter Contexts, referenced Controller Services, and referenced Parameter Providers, when creating new Process Groups. Creating a new Process Group can include binding to a Parameter Context, but in cases where the Process Group did not reference any Parameter values, the framework did not check user authorization for the bound Parameter Context. Missing authorization for a bound Parameter Context enabled clients to download non-sensitive Parameter values after creating the Process Group. impact: | Attackers can create Process Groups bound to Parameter Contexts without proper authorization checks, enabling them to download non-sensitive parameter values and potentially access sensitive configuration data. remediation: | Update Apache NiFi to version 2.1.0 or later to address the missing authorization checks for Parameter Contexts. reference: - https://lists.apache.org/thread/cjc8fns5kjsho0s7vonlnojokyfx47wn - http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/12/28/1 - https://github.com/absholi7ly/CVE-2024-56512-Apache-NiFi-Exploit/ - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-56512 classification: cve-id: CVE-2024-56512 epss-score: 0.37606 epss-percentile: 0.97277 metadata: verified: true max-request: 1 shodan-query: title:"Nifi" tags: cve,cve2024,nifi,exposure,vuln http: - method: GET path: - "{{BaseURL}}{{path}}" payloads: path: - /nifi-api/flow/process-groups/root - /nifi-api/controller/config matchers-condition: or matchers: - type: dsl name: process-group-information dsl: - 'contains(content_type, "application/json")' - 'contains_all(body, "processGroupFlow", "breadcrumb")' - 'status_code == 200' condition: and - type: dsl name: config-information dsl: - 'contains(content_type, "application/json")' - 'contains_all(body, "maxTimerDrivenThreadCount", "maxEventDrivenThreadCount")' - 'status_code == 200' condition: and # digest: 4a0a0047304502201ddda921a7a3ff06b5c6cb40ade9f5ca61dce5a985e8f7d1aa79373d38a2800c022100bdef0a23154e38ee609b62c1cfa1ff391d766ecd76d797328f7755d9e84ac9f7:922c64590222798bb761d5b6d8e72950
