CVE-2025-59355 — Apache Linkis security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 6.5

A vulnerability. When org.apache.linkis.metadata.util.HiveUtils.decode() fails to perform Base64 decoding, it records the complete input parameter string in the log via logger.error(str + "decode failed", e). If the input parameter contains sensitive information such as Hive Metastore keys, plaintext passwords will be left in the log files when decoding fails, resulting in information leakage. Affected Scope Component: Sensitive fields in hive-site.xml (e.g., javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword) or other fields encoded in Base64. Version: Apache Linkis 1.0.0 – 1.7.0 Trigger Conditions The value of the configuration item is an invalid Base64 string. Log files are readable by users other than hive-site.xml administrators. Severity: Low The probability of Base64 decoding failure is low. The leakage is only triggered when logs at the Error level are exposed. Remediation Apache Linkis 1.8.0 and later versions have replaced the log with desensitized content. logger.error("URL decode failed: {}", e.getMessage()); // 不再输出 str Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.8.0, which fixes the issue.

Matched remediation archetype

Information disclosure and sensitive data exposure

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace sensitive data through responses, errors, logs, metrics, traces, caches, exports, files, backups, and client bundles.
  • Identify affected subjects, tenants, retention windows, access controls, and downstream copies without opening unnecessary sensitive records.
  • Review metadata, timing, status, length, and existence signals as well as direct content disclosure.

Remediate safely

  • Minimize collection and output, apply field-level authorization and redaction at a centralized boundary, and return generic external errors.
  • Remove secrets and sensitive data from logs, artifacts, URLs, caches, and client-side bundles; rotate credentials that may have been exposed.
  • Update the affected component and add synthetic-data tests for response, error, observability, and export paths.
