What is CVE-2023-25570?

CVE-2023-25570 is a high-severity missing authorization vulnerability in apolloconfig apollo, published on 20 Feb 2023. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Apollo is a configuration management system. Prior to version 2.1.0, there are potential security issues if users expose apollo-configservice to the internet, which is not recommended. This is because there is no authentication feature enabled for the built-in eureka service. Malicious hackers may access eureka directly to mock apollo-configservice and apollo-adminservice. Login authentication for eureka was added in version 2.1.0. As a workaround, avoid exposing apollo-configservice to the internet.

Weakness: CWE-306
