DescriptionCVE.org
An Improper Authorization vulnerability exists in Apache Superset that allows a low-privileged user to bypass data access controls. When creating a dataset, Superset enforces permission checks to prevent users from querying unauthorized data. However, an authenticated attacker with permissions to write datasets and read charts can bypass these checks by overwriting the SQL query of an existing dataset.
This issue affects Apache Superset: before 6.0.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 6.0.0, which fixes the issue.
AnalysisAI
Apache Superset before version 6.0.0 contains an authorization bypass in dataset management that allows authenticated users with write access to datasets to circumvent data access controls and query unauthorized information. An attacker can exploit this by modifying the SQL query of existing datasets to access restricted data that their role should not permit. No patch is currently available, leaving affected deployments vulnerable until upgrading to version 6.0.0.
