CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedApache NiFi versions 2.0.0 through 2.10.0 are vulnerable to improper authorization during asset deletion via the REST API, allowing potential unauthorized deletion of assets if different authorization levels are not implemented across Parameter Contexts. This could lead to data loss or integrity issues for organizations relying on these versions. Users of affected Apache NiFi installations should prioritize upgrading to version 2.11.0 to ensure proper verification of Parameter Context ownership before asset deletion.
Original NVD Description
Apache NiFi 2.0.0 through 2.10.0 support creating, reading, and deleting Assets associated with Parameter Contexts through the REST API. The framework authorizes asset deletion against the owning Parameter Context using the supplied Parameter Context Identifier and Asset Identifier. The framework performed authorized based on the supplied Parameter Context Identifier without verifying the requested Identifier against the stored Identifier. Apache NiFi installations that do not implement different levels of authorization across Parameter Contexts are not subject to this vulnerability, because the framework enforces write permissions as the security boundary. Upgrading to Apache NiFi 2.11.0 is the recommended mitigation, which verifies Parameter Context ownership of the requested Asset before deletion using the same strategy applied to Asset read operations.
