QID 982412

QID 982412: Java (maven) Security Update for org.apache.flink:flink-core (GHSA-6g88-99wj-8mgg)

A vulnerability in Apache Flink where, when running a process with an enabled JMXReporter, with a port configured via metrics.reporter.reporter_name>.port, an attacker with local access to the machine and JMX port can execute a man-in-the-middle attack using a specially crafted request to rebind the JMXRMI registry to one under the attacker's control. This compromises any connection established to the process via JMX, allowing extraction of credentials and any other transferred data.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.

CVSS V3 rated as Medium - 4.7 severity.
