Apache Superset < 2.1.0 Secure Session Key

critical Nessus Plugin ID 186510

Language:

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote host is missing a vendor-supplied update.

Description

The version of Apache Superset installed on the remote host is affected a potential unsecure session key vulnerability. Installations that have not altered the default configured SECRET_KEY according to the installation instructions, or that use a predictable key phrase, would allow for an unauthenticated attacker to access the user dashboard with full administrator rights, allowing the attacker to compromise the system.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache Superset version 2.1.0 or later.
