SCA: security update for org.apache.pulsar:pulsar-broker (GHSA-7mg2-6c6v-342r)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 412141

Description

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

- This vulnerability allows authenticated users with produce or consume permissions to perform unauthorized
operations on partitioned topics, such as unloading topics and triggering compaction. These management
operations should be restricted to users with the tenant admin role or superuser role. An authenticated
user with produce permission can create subscriptions and update subscription properties on partitioned
topics, even though this should be limited to users with consume permissions. This impact analysis assumes
that Pulsar has been configured with the default authorization provider. For custom authorization
providers, the impact could be slightly different. Additionally, the vulnerability allows an authenticated
user to read, create, modify, and delete namespace properties in any namespace in any tenant. In Pulsar,
namespace properties are reserved for user provided metadata about the namespace. This issue affects
Apache Pulsar versions from 2.7.1 to 2.10.6, from 2.11.0 to 2.11.4, from 3.0.0 to 3.0.3, from 3.1.0 to
3.1.3, and from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1. 3.0 Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.0.4. 3.1 and 3.2
Apache Pulsar users should upgrade to at least 3.2.2. Users operating versions prior to those listed above
should upgrade to the aforementioned patched versions or newer versions. (CVE-2024-29834)
