Overview

Apache Spark is a general cluster computing system for Big Data.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks. It is possible for a malicious user to construct a URL pointing to a Spark cluster's UI's job and stage info pages, and if a user can be tricked into accessing the URL, can be used to cause script to execute and expose information from the user's view of the Spark UI.
