CWE-284  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade com.hazelcast:hazelcast-sql to version 5.2.5, 5.3.5 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Access Control due to inadequate permission checking, within the SQL mapping for the CSV File Source connector. This could enable unauthorized clients to access data from files stored on a member's filesystem.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be avoided by disabling the Hazelcast Jet processing engine in Hazelcast member configuration - which will result in SQL and Jet jobs not working.
