DescriptionCVE.org

CMAK through 3.0.0.6 fails to apply the scheduled leader election feature toggle to HTML form routes, allowing attackers to bypass the feature gate. Attackers can access the form endpoints to start and stop the recurring election scheduler, disrupting leadership across managed Kafka clusters.

AnalysisAI

Yahoo CMAK through 3.0.0.6 fails to enforce its scheduled leader election feature toggle on the PreferredReplicaElection HTML form routes, allowing an authenticated user (CVSS PR:L) with network access to the web UI to start or stop the recurring election scheduler and disrupt leadership across the Kafka clusters managed by that instance. This is a protection-mechanism failure (CWE-693) with no confidentiality impact (C:N) and limited integrity/availability impact (I:L/A:L); the assessed severity is low-to-moderate (CVSS 3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L), and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires an authenticated CMAK account (PR:L) with network access to the web UI; the attacker then reaches the PreferredReplicaElection HTML form endpoints that start/stop the recurring election scheduler. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a low-to-moderate-severity issue best characterized as a protection-mechanism failure (CWE-693), not a critical flaw. … 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 No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; the issue is tracked in the CMAK repository at https://github.com/yahoo/CMAK/issues/936 and the affected routes are in app/controllers/PreferredReplicaElection.scala, so administrators should watch for an upstream fix or apply a local code change that enforces the scheduled leader-election feature toggle on the PreferredReplicaElection HTML form routes. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
