Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-6393)

CWE-ID: CWE-284 - Improper Access Control

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain unauthorized access to otherwise restricted functionality.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions in the Quarkus Cache Runtime. When request processing utilizes a Uni cached using @CacheResult and the cached Uni reuses the initial "completion" context, the processing switches to the cached Uni instead of the request context. A remote user can send a specially crafted request to the server and obtain information that belongs to another user.
