Overview

org.apache.hadoop:hadoop-common is a framework that allows for the distributed processing of large data sets across clusters of computers using simple programming models.

Affected versions of the package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. The YARN NodeManager component can leak the password for credential store provider used by the NodeManager to YARN Applications. This is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2016-3086
