Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is a bypass of the DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS security feature in Apache Superset. It allows an attacker to use a special inline block to circumvent the denylist that blocks certain SQL functions. As a result, a user with SQL Lab access can execute SQL functions that were intended to be disabled.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability can lead to the disclosure of sensitive database information, such as the software version, by allowing execution of blocked SQL functions. This could potentially expose internal details that might be leveraged for further attacks.
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Users are recommended to upgrade Apache Superset to version 5.0.0 or later, as this version fixes the vulnerability that allows bypassing the DISALLOWED_SQL_FUNCTIONS security feature.
