Attack profile from CVSS 3.1 · CISA ADP. Fix status from CNA. Impact type from CWE-306 and CWE-89.

Summary

Apache Kylin from 5 through 5.0.4 is affected. A backend cache API does not require authentication (CWE-306), and it can execute injected SQL (CWE-89). An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit it when the Kylin service is directly exposed to the public network. In-house deployments are mostly not affected.
