How to fix?

Upgrade org.apache.thrift:libthrift to version 0.9.3-1, 0.12.0 or higher.

Overview

org.apache.thrift:libthrift is a lightweight, language-independent software stack with an associated code generation mechanism for point-to-point RPC.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass. It could bypass SASL negotiation in the org.apache.thrift.transport.TSaslTransport class. An assert used to determine if the SASL handshake had successfully completed could be disabled in production settings making the validation incomplete.
