GHSA-mpj7-7mg7-x95j: Apache NiFi: Missing Complete Authorization for Parameter and Service References

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. Creating a new Process Group can also include referencing existing Controller Services or Parameter Providers. The framework did not check user authorization for referenced Controller Services or Parameter Providers, enabling clients to create Process Groups and use these components that were otherwise unauthorized. This vulnerability is limited in scope to authenticated users authorized to create Process Groups...

GHSA-5pf6-cq2v-23ww: WhoDB Allows Unbounded Memory Consumption in Authentication Middleware Can Lead to Denial of Service

### Summary A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability in the authentication middleware allows any client to cause memory exhaustion by sending large request bodies. The server reads the entire request body into memory without size limits, creating multiple copies during processing, which can lead to Out of Memory conditions. Affects all versions up to the latest one (v0.43.0). ### Details The vulnerability exists in the AuthMiddleware function in `core/src/auth/auth.go`. The middleware processes all API requests (`/api/*`) and reads the entire request body using `io.ReadAll` without any size limits: ```go func AuthMiddleware(next http.Handler) http.Handler { return http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r http.Request) { // No size limit on body reading body, err := io.ReadAll(r.Body) // ... // Creates another copy of the body r.Body = io.NopCloser(bytes.NewReader(body)) // ... // Unmarshals the body again, creating more copies if err := j...
