Default no-auth exposes endpoints to unauthenticated network attackers (PR:N); RCE, data exfiltration, and DoS justify C:H/I:H/A:H; cross-tenant impact yields S:C.

2DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw was found in Feast and feast-operator. The default configuration for both the Feast SDK and the feast-operator is "no_auth," meaning no security manager is installed. This default allows unauthenticated and unauthorized access to feature-server, registry-server, and offline-server endpoints. A remote attacker, by exploiting this missing authentication, could achieve remote code execution (RCE) by storing a malicious User-Defined Function (UDF) on the feature-server, trigger a denial of service (DoS) by forcing re-materialization of all tenant features, and gain unauthorized access to cross-tenant data.
AnalysisAI
Feast and feast-operator ship with a default 'no_auth' security configuration, leaving the feature-server, registry-server, and offline-server endpoints completely unauthenticated and accessible to any network-reachable attacker in Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI) deployments. Exploitation enables three distinct high-impact outcomes: remote code execution via injection of a malicious User-Defined Function (UDF) onto the feature-server, denial of service by forcing full re-materialization of all tenant features, and unauthorized read access to cross-tenant feature data. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The default 'no_auth' configuration of the Feast SDK and feast-operator must be in place - no security manager explicitly configured - which is the out-of-box state. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Real-world risk is substantially higher than the provided CVSS score of 7.7 suggests. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An unauthenticated attacker with network access to an RHOAI cluster's Feast feature-server API submits a crafted HTTP request registering a malicious User-Defined Function (UDF) containing arbitrary code. When the feature-server processes or materializes features, it executes the UDF, granting the attacker code execution in the server process context. … |
| Remediation | The primary remediation is to enable authentication on all Feast server endpoints by explicitly configuring a security manager in both the Feast SDK configuration and the feast-operator deployment manifests - replacing the default 'no_auth' mode with an appropriate authentication provider (e.g., OIDC, token-based, or Kubernetes RBAC-integrated auth). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, identify all RHOAI deployments running Feast or feast-operator and confirm current network exposure of feature-server, registry-server, and offline-server endpoints; audit which endpoints are externally or cross-namespace reachable. …
