Authorization bypass in Apache NiFi 1.10.0 through 2.10.0 allows read-only authenticated users to submit Parameter Context validation requests that the system should restrict to write-privileged users. By supplying proposed parameter values in these requests, a low-privileged user can override active configuration and invoke component validation methods with attacker-controlled settings, potentially exposing sensitive configuration data or disrupting running data flow operations. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid NiFi account with at least read-level access to Parameter Contexts (PR:L per CVSS 4.0) - unauthenticated exploitation is not possible. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 7.7 with VC:H/VI:H/VA:H indicates high potential impact across all three CIA dimensions on the vulnerable system, though SC:N/SI:N/SA:N confirms no lateral impact to subsequent systems. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade to Apache NiFi 2.11.0, which enforces write-level authorization on Parameter Context validation requests - this is the vendor-confirmed primary fix per the oss-security advisory (https://seclists.org/oss-sec/2026/q3/397) and Apache Jira NIFI-16112 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-16112). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
