Summary
KNIME Business Hub from 0 before 1.19.0 lacks isolation between execution contexts (CWE-653), so an authenticated remote user can reach open network ports on executors in other execution contexts. An attacker needs the IP address of the target executor and an open port that accepts connections without further authentication. By default no network ports are open, but running workflows may open them.

Description from the CNA
Unrestricted network access between execution contexts in KNIME Business Hub before version 1.19.0 allows an authenticated remote user to access open network ports on executors in different execution contexts. This only poses a security issue if the IP address of the attacked executor is know and there are open network ports that provided access without further authentication. By default no network ports are open. However, depending on the running workflows, ports may be opened and provide an attack surface. As a workaround, network policies can be created manually.
