Overview

apache-superset is a modern, enterprise-ready business intelligence web application.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authorization through the SQLLab component. An attacker can execute unauthorized write operations by crafting a specially designed SQL DML statement that is incorrectly identified as a read-only query.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the database connection is not set with a readonly user.
