Headline
GHSA-2q6j-vpvr-6pvj: Apache Superset vulnerable to improper SQL authorization
An SQL Injection vulnerability in Apache Superset exists due to improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands. Specifically, certain engine-specific functions are not checked, which allows attackers to bypass Apache Superset’s SQL authorization. To mitigate this, a new configuration key named DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS has been introduced. This key disallows the use of the following PostgreSQL functions: version, query_to_xml, inet_server_addr, and inet_client_addr. Additional functions can be added to this list for increased protection.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 4.0.2.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.2, which fixes the issue.
Package
pip apache-superset (pip)
Affected versions
< 4.0.2
Patched versions
