DescriptionGitHub Advisory
Unity Catalog is an open, multi-modal Catalog for data and AI. In 0.4.0 and earlier, a critical authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the Unity Catalog token exchange endpoint (/api/1.0/unity-control/auth/tokens). The endpoint extracts the issuer (iss) claim from incoming JWTs and uses it to dynamically fetch the JWKS endpoint for signature validation without validating that the issuer is a trusted identity provider.
Executive ViewAI
A critical authentication bypass vulnerability in Unity Catalog versions 0.4.0 and earlier allows attackers to obtain valid tokens without proper credentials, potentially granting unauthorized access to sensitive data and AI assets. Organizations using affected versions face immediate risk of data breaches and unauthorized system access, with no patch currently available.
Deploy WAF rules to block suspicious requests to /api/1.0/unity-control/auth/tokens endpoint; implement IP-based access controls limiting token endpoint access to internal networks only; disable Unity Catalog token exchange feature if not actively required; segment Unity Catalog systems from sensitive data repositories; enforce multi-factor authentication for all catalog access; implement real-time alerting for failed authentication attempts and token generation anomalies.
