DescriptionCVE.org

Logs contain replayable JWT tokens in Apache Ranger versions <= 2.8.0 Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.9.0, which fixes this issue.

JWT tokens written to Apache Ranger logs in versions 2.8.0 and earlier remain replayable, allowing any party with read access to those logs to authenticate as legitimate users without knowing their credentials. The flaw (CWE-532) is particularly severe because Ranger controls data security policies across Hadoop ecosystems - impersonating a Ranger user can yield control over access policies for HDFS, Hive, HBase, and related services. …
