An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-7521 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.hive:hive (Maven): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.2.2\n- org.apache.hive:hive (Maven): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.2.2\n- org.apache.hive:hive-exec (Maven): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.2.2\n- org.apache.hive:hive-exec (Maven): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.2.2\n- org.apache.hive:hive-service (Maven): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.2.2\n- org.apache.hive:hive-service (Maven): affected from 1.0.0; fixed in 1.2.2\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7521/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7521/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-7521","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7521/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-7521","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Apache Hive","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass parent table access restrictions in Apache Hive clusters using Ranger or SqlStdHiveAuthorization via partition-level operations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"hive","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":8.3,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The authorization framework in Apache Hive 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.1.0, 1.1.1, 1.2.0 and 1.2.1, on clusters protected by Ranger and SqlStdHiveAuthorization, allows attackers to bypass intended parent table access restrictions via unspecified partition-level operations.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"High severity vulnerability that affects org.apache.hive:hive, org.apache.hive:hive-exec, and org.apache.hive:hive-service","id":"CVE-2015-7521","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2015"},"n_packages":6,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2015-7522"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["1.2.2"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.hive:hive","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["1.2.2"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.hive:hive","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.hive/hive","source":"GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["1.2.2"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.hive:hive-exec","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["1.2.2"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.hive:hive-exec","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.hive/hive-exec","source":"GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["1.2.2"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.hive:hive-service","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["1.2.2"],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.hive:hive-service","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.hive/hive-service","source":"GHSA-83r3-c79w-f6wc"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-7520"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-01-29","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Hive: SQL Injection vulnerability in HiveMetaStore partition-name direct-SQL paths","id":"CVE-2026-49845","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data in Jodd","id":"CVE-2018-21234","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-21"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Apache Hive: SSRF vulnerability in Hive Avro Serde due to Insufficient input validation on avro.schema.url","id":"CVE-2026-55976","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-25"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"SQL Injection in hive-jdbc","id":"CVE-2018-1282","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-05"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Apache Hive: Deserialization of untrusted data when fetching partitions from the Metastore","id":"CVE-2022-41137","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-05"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Improper Authentication in hive:hive-exec","id":"CVE-2018-11777","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-11-08"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass parent table access restrictions in Apache Hive clusters using Ranger or SqlStdHiveAuthorization via partition-level operations.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-7521/"}
