SCA: security update for org.apache.druid:druid-core (GHSA-793h-6f7r-6qvm)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 411952

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - In the Druid ingestion system, the InputSource is used for reading data from a certain data source.
 However, the HTTP InputSource allows authenticated users to read data from other sources than intended,
 such as the local file system, with the privileges of the Druid server process. This is not an elevation
 of privilege when users access Druid directly, since Druid also provides the Local InputSource, which
 allows the same level of access. But it is problematic when users interact with Druid indirectly through
 an application that allows users to specify the HTTP InputSource, but not the Local InputSource. In this
 case, users could bypass the application-level restriction by passing a file URL to the HTTP InputSource.
 (CVE-2021-26920)
