MEDIUM 6.9

DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was identified in provectus kafka-ui up to 0.7.2. This impacts the function validateAccess of the file /api/smartfilters/testexecutions of the component Endpoint. The manipulation leads to code injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

Code injection in Provectus kafka-ui up to version 0.7.2 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the validateAccess function in the /api/smartfilters/testexecutions endpoint. The vulnerability has publicly available exploit code and carries a CVSS 6.9 score reflecting moderate but meaningful real-world risk; the vendor was contacted early but provided no response, suggesting no patch is anticipated.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability stems from unsafe code injection handling (CWE-94: Improper Control of Generation of Code) in the smart filters test executions API endpoint of kafka-ui, a web-based Kafka cluster management tool. The validateAccess function fails to properly sanitize or validate user-supplied input before processing it as code, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary payloads. Kafka-ui is a standalone web UI built in Java/Kotlin for Apache Kafka administration and monitoring, making this endpoint a direct attack surface for remote code execution when improperly secured.

RemediationAI

Immediate upgrade to a version newer than 0.7.2 is the primary remediation, though no specific patched version is confirmed from available data; organizations should verify the latest available kafka-ui release from the official Provectus repository (https://github.com/provectus/kafka-ui) and test before deployment. If upgrade is not immediately possible, implement network-level access controls to restrict access to the /api/smartfilters/testexecutions endpoint, use reverse proxy authentication to require valid credentials despite the endpoint's lack of built-in auth, and monitor for suspicious payloads in request logs.
