Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-9792 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apache Impala. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\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-2017-9792/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9792/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-9792","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9792/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-9792","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-92jv-xphv-7f8c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Impala","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A user with ALTER permissions can bypass authorization checks to read data from unauthorized Kudu tables by modifying table properties.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"impala","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"In Apache Impala (incubating) before 2.10.0, a malicious user with \"ALTER\" permissions on an Impala table can access any other Kudu table data by altering the table properties to make it \"external\" and then changing the underlying table mapping to point to other Kudu tables. This violates and works around the authorization requirement that creating a Kudu external table via Impala requires an \"ALL\" privilege at the server scope. This privilege requirement for \"CREATE\" commands is enforced to precisely avoid this scenario where a malicious user can change the underlying Kudu table mapping. The fix is to enforce the same privilege requirement for \"ALTER\" commands that would make existing non-external Kudu tables external.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Apache Impala","id":"CVE-2017-9792","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"The REST Plugin in Apache Struts is using an outdated XStream library","id":"CVE-2017-9793"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Apache Struts 1 Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2017-9791"},"products":["Apache Impala"],"published":"2017-10-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Impala: SAML authentication bypass via forged bearer token","id":"CVE-2026-56207","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Apache Impala","id":"CVE-2018-11792","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-10-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in Apache Impala","id":"CVE-2017-5640","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Apache Impala: Secrets Exfiltration via SSRF","id":"CVE-2026-57866","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-09"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Apache Impala: RCE via External Data Source Class Loading","id":"CVE-2026-65181","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Impala logs contain secrets","id":"CVE-2021-28131","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Missing authorization in Impala","id":"CVE-2019-10084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"2024-09-17","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":"A user with ALTER permissions can bypass authorization checks to read data from unauthorized Kudu tables by modifying table properties.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9792/"}
