Overview

org.apache.nifi:nifi-web-api is a system to process and distribute data.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization while configuring verification requests. An attacker can override existing configuration properties by submitting alternative settings through read access, which enables invoking predefined verification methods with unauthorized parameters.

Note: This is only exploitable if the system does not enforce separate authorization levels for viewing and modifying component configuration.
