CVE-2020-17533

Disclosure Date: December 29, 2020
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

Apache Accumulo versions 1.5.0 through 1.10.0 and version 2.0.0 do not properly check the return value of some policy enforcement functions before permitting an authenticated user to perform certain administrative operations. Specifically, the return values of the ‘canFlush’ and ‘canPerformSystemActions’ security functions are not checked in some instances, therefore allowing an authenticated user with insufficient permissions to perform the following actions: flushing a table, shutting down Accumulo or an individual tablet server, and setting or removing system-wide Accumulo configuration properties.
