Technical description

Padding Oracle vulnerability in Apache Druid extension, druid-pac4j.

This could allow an attacker to manipulate a pac4j session cookie.

This issue affects Apache Druid versions 0.18.0 through 30.0.0.

Since the druid-pac4j extension is optional and disabled by default, Druid installations not using the druid-pac4j extension are not affected by this vulnerability.

While we are not aware of a way to meaningfully exploit this flaw, we

nevertheless recommend upgrading to version 30.0.1 or higher which fixes the issue

and ensuring you have a strong

druid.auth.pac4j.cookiePassphrase as a precaution.
