8.8 highEPSS 4.9%

High (8.8) in apache storm. EPSS 4.9% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in org.apache.storm:storm-core 1.0.4, 1.1.1.

It was found that under some situations and configurations of Apache Storm 1.x before 1.0.4 and 1.1.x before 1.1.1, it is theoretically possible for the owner of a topology to trick the supervisor to launch a worker as a different, non-root, user. In the worst case this could lead to secure credentials of the other user being compromised.
