{"cve":"CVE-2023-29055","nvd":{"published":"2024-01-29T13:15:07.970","modified":"2026-06-17T05:49:16.137","status":"Modified","description":"In Apache Kylin version 2.0.0 to 4.0.3, there is a Server Config web interface that displays the content of file 'kylin.properties', that may contain serverside credentials. When the kylin service runs over HTTP (or other plain text protocol), it is possible for network sniffers to hijack the HTTP payload and get access to the content of kylin.properties and potentially the containing credentials.\n\nTo avoid this threat, users are recommended to \n\n  *  Always turn on HTTPS so that network payload is encrypted.\n\n  *  Avoid putting credentials in kylin.properties, or at least not in plain text.\n  *  Use network firewalls to protect the serverside such that it is not accessible to external attackers.\n\n  *  Upgrade to version Apache Kylin 4.0.4, which filters out the sensitive content that goes to the Server Config web interface.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-522"],"references":["http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/01/29/1","https://lists.apache.org/thread/o1bvyv9wnfkx7dxpfjlor20nykgsoh6r","http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/01/29/1","https://lists.apache.org/thread/o1bvyv9wnfkx7dxpfjlor20nykgsoh6r"],"products":["apache:kylin"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:44:57.175229480+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2023-29055","score":0.01149,"percentile":0.66859,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-3vvc-v8c2-43r7","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-3vvc-v8c2-43r7","summary":"Apache Kylin has Insufficiently Protected Credentials","modified":"2025-02-13T19:45:07.669399Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.kylin:kylin-core-common","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.kylin/kylin-core-common","ranges":[">=2.0.0 <4.0.4"],"fixed":["4.0.4"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
