An authorization bypass vulnerability in Apache DolphinScheduler allows authenticated users to perform unauthorized operations on workflow schedules, workflow definitions, and task instances in other projects.
The affected endpoints check permissions against the supplied projectCode but fail to verify that the target resource belongs to that project. An authenticated user with the required permissions in one project can supply that project's code together with a resource identifier from another project, bypassing the target project's access restrictions.
The affected endpoints include:
*
POST /projects/{projectCode}/schedules/{id}/online and /offline: Activate or deactivate workflow schedules in another project.
*
POST /projects/{projectCode}/workflow-definition/{code}/release: Change the ONLINE/OFFLINE state of workflow definitions in another project.
Successful exploitation allows users to alter workflow availability and interfere with task execution in projects they are not authorized to access.
This issue affects Apache DolphinScheduler: before 3.4.3.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.4.3, which fixes the issue.
SSVC (CISA's decision table, applied by EchelonGraph)Track at every mission impact level.
The CVE record names the fixed release. Apply it within your standard update timelines.
Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".
