Apache NiFi suffers from information disclosure due to missing authorization checks for Parameter Contexts.

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.
