Overview

acryl-datahub is an A CLI to work with DataHub metadata

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Authentication Bypass such that session cookies are only cleared upon new sign-ins, not during logouts. This allows potential attackers to bypass authentication checks using the AuthUtils.hasValidSessionCookie() method by using a cookie from a logged-out session. Consequently, any logged-out session cookie might be considered valid, leading to an authentication bypass.
