CVE-2018-8042apache software foundationapache ambari+18y ago18-07-2018 15:00

Apache Ambari, version 2.5.0 to 2.6.2, passwords for Hadoop credential stores are exposed in Ambari Agent informational log messages when the credential store feature is enabled for eligible services. For example, Hive and Oozie.CVE-2018-8003apache software foundationapache ambari+18y ago03-05-2018 23:00

Apache Ambari, versions 1.4.0 to 2.6.1, is susceptible to a directory traversal attack allowing an unauthenticated user to craft an HTTP request which provides read-only access to any file on the filesystem of the host the Ambari Server runs on that is accessible by the user the Ambari Server is running as. Direct network access to the Ambari Server is required to issue this request, and those Ambari Servers that are protected behind a firewall, or in a restricted network zone are at less risk of being affected by this issue.CVE-2015-1775apacheambari+110y ago02-11-2015 19:00

Server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the proxy endpoint (api/v1/proxy) in Apache Ambari before 2.1.0 allows remote authenticated users to conduct port scans and access unsecured services via a crafted REST call.CVE-2015-4928apacheambari10y ago08-11-2015 22:00

Apache Ambari before 2.1, as used in IBM Infosphere BigInsights 4.x before 4.1, includes cleartext passwords on a Configs screen, which allows physically proximate attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading password fields.CVE-2015-4940apacheambari10y ago08-11-2015 22:00

Apache Ambari before 2.1, as used in IBM Infosphere BigInsights 4.x before 4.1, stores a cleartext BigSheets password in a configuration file, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading this file.CVE-2015-5210apacheambari+110y ago02-11-2015 19:00

Open redirect vulnerability in Apache Ambari before 2.1.2 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via a URL in the targetURI parameter.CVE-2015-3186apacheambari10y ago02-11-2015 19:00

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Apache Ambari before 2.1.0 allows remote authenticated cluster operator users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the note field in a configuration change.CVE-2015-3270apacheambari10y ago02-11-2015 19:00

Apache Ambari before 2.0.2 or 2.1.x before 2.1.1 allows remote authenticated users to gain administrative privileges via unspecified vectors, possibly related to changing passwords.CVE-2016-0707apacheambari10y ago18-05-2016 14:00

The agent in Apache Ambari before 2.1.2 uses weak permissions for the (1) /var/lib/ambari-agent/data and (2) /var/lib/ambari-agent/keys directories, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading files in the directories.CVE-2016-0731apacheambari10y ago18-05-2016 14:00

The File Browser View in Apache Ambari before 2.2.1 allows remote authenticated administrators to read arbitrary files via a file: URL in the WebHDFS URL configuration.CVE-2016-4976apacheambari+19y ago29-03-2017 20:00

Apache Ambari 2.x before 2.4.0 includes KDC administrator passwords on the kadmin command line, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a process listing.CVE-2016-6807apache software foundationapache ambari+29y ago28-03-2017 20:00

Custom commands may be executed on Ambari Agent (2.4.x, before 2.4.2) hosts without authorization, leading to unauthorized access to operations that may affect the underlying system. Such operations are invoked by the Ambari Agent process on Ambari Agent hosts, as the user executing the Ambari Agent process.CVE-2025-23196apache software foundationapache ambari+11y ago21-01-2025 21:23

A code injection vulnerability exists in the Ambari Alert Definition feature, allowing authenticated users to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands. The vulnerability arises when defining alert scripts, where the script filename field is executed using `sh -c`. An attacker with authenticated access can exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious commands, leading to remote code execution on the server. The issue has been fixed in the latest versions of Ambari.CVE-2025-23195apache software foundationapache ambari+11y ago21-01-2025 21:22

An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability exists in the Ambari/Oozie project, allowing an attacker to inject malicious XML entities. This vulnerability occurs due to insecure parsing of XML input using the `DocumentBuilderFactory` class without disabling external entity resolution. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary files on the server or perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks. The issue has been fixed in both Ambari 2.7.9 and the trunk branch.CVE-2020-13924apache software foundationapache ambari+15y ago17-03-2021 09:05

In Apache Ambari versions 2.6.2.2 and earlier, malicious users can construct file names for directory traversal and traverse to other directories to download files.CVE-2020-1936apache software foundationapache ambari+25y ago02-03-2021 09:00

A cross-site scripting issue was found in Apache Ambari Views. This was addressed in Apache Ambari 2.7.4.CVE-2014-3582apacheambari9y ago29-03-2017 20:00

In Ambari 1.2.0 through 2.2.2, it may be possible to execute arbitrary system commands on the Ambari Server host while generating SSL certificates for hosts in an Ambari cluster.CVE-2022-42009apache software foundationapache ambari+23y ago12-07-2023 09:58

SpringEL injection in the server agent in Apache Ambari version 2.7.0 to 2.7.6 allows a malicious authenticated user to execute arbitrary code remotely. Users are recommended to upgrade to 2.7.7.CVE-2022-45855apache software foundationapache ambari+23y ago12-07-2023 09:59

SpringEL injection in the metrics source in Apache Ambari version 2.7.0 to 2.7.6 allows a malicious authenticated user to execute arbitrary code remotely. Users are recommended to upgrade to 2.7.7.CVE-2017-5655apache software foundationapache ambari+19y ago15-05-2017 14:00

In Ambari 2.2.2 through 2.4.2 and Ambari 2.5.0, sensitive data may be stored on disk in temporary files on the Ambari Server host. The temporary files are readable by any user authenticated on the host.
