CVE-2025-23196 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2025-06-09 N/A N/A
A code injection vulnerability exists in the Ambari Alert Definition feature, allowing authenticated users to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands. The vulnerability arises when defining alert scripts, where the script filename field is executed using `sh -c`. An attacker with authenticated access can exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious commands, leading to remote code execution on the server. The issue has been fixed in the latest versions of Ambari.
CVE-2025-23195 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2025-06-09 N/A N/A
An XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability exists in the Ambari/Oozie project, allowing an attacker to inject malicious XML entities. This vulnerability occurs due to insecure parsing of XML input using the `DocumentBuilderFactory` class without disabling external entity resolution. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to read arbitrary files on the server or perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks. The issue has been fixed in both Ambari 2.7.9 and the trunk branch.
CVE-2024-51941 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2025-06-09 N/A N/A
A remote code injection vulnerability exists in the Ambari Metrics and AMS Alerts feature, allowing authenticated users to inject and execute arbitrary code. The vulnerability occurs when processing alert definitions, where malicious input can be injected into the alert script execution path. An attacker with authenticated access can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands on the server. The issue has been fixed in the latest versions of Ambari.
CVE-2023-50378 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2025-05-28 N/A N/A
Lack of proper input validation and constraint enforcement in Apache Ambari prior to 2.7.8    Impact : As it will be stored XSS, Could be exploited to perform unauthorized actions, varying from data access to session hijacking and delivering malicious payloads. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.7.8 which fixes this issue.
CVE-2023-50379 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2025-05-05 N/A N/A
Malicious code injection in Apache Ambari in prior to 2.7.8. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.7.8, which fixes this issue. Impact: A Cluster Operator can manipulate the request by adding a malicious code injection and gain a root over the cluster main host.
CVE-2023-50380 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2025-03-27 N/A 6.5 MEDIUM
XML External Entity injection in apache ambari versions <= 2.7.7, Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.7.8, which fixes this issue. More Details: Oozie Workflow Scheduler had a vulnerability that allowed for root-level file reading and privilege escalation from low-privilege users. The vulnerability was caused through lack of proper user input validation. This vulnerability is known as an XML External Entity (XXE) injection attack. Attackers can exploit XXE vulnerabilities to read arbitrary files on the server, including sensitive system files. In theory, it might be possible to use this to escalate privileges.
CVE-2022-42009 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2023-07-20 N/A 8.8 HIGH
SpringEL injection in the server agent in Apache Ambari version 2.7.0 to 2.7.6 allows a malicious authenticated user to execute arbitrary code remotely. Users are recommended to upgrade to 2.7.7.
CVE-2022-45855 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2023-07-20 N/A 8.8 HIGH
SpringEL injection in the metrics source in Apache Ambari version 2.7.0 to 2.7.6 allows a malicious authenticated user to execute arbitrary code remotely. Users are recommended to upgrade to 2.7.7.
CVE-2020-13924 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2021-03-23 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
In Apache Ambari versions 2.6.2.2 and earlier, malicious users can construct file names for directory traversal and traverse to other directories to download files.
CVE-2020-1936 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2021-03-10 4.3 MEDIUM 6.1 MEDIUM
A cross-site scripting issue was found in Apache Ambari Views. This was addressed in Apache Ambari 2.7.4.
CVE-2018-8042 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2019-10-03 4.3 MEDIUM 8.1 HIGH
Apache Ambari, version 2.5.0 to 2.6.2, passwords for Hadoop credential stores are exposed in Ambari Agent informational log messages when the credential store feature is enabled for eligible services. For example, Hive and Oozie.
CVE-2017-5642 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2019-10-03 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
During installation of Ambari 2.4.0 through 2.4.2, Ambari Server artifacts are not created with proper ACLs.
CVE-2018-8003 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2018-06-13 5.0 MEDIUM 5.3 MEDIUM
Apache Ambari, versions 1.4.0 to 2.6.1, is susceptible to a directory traversal attack allowing an unauthenticated user to craft an HTTP request which provides read-only access to any file on the filesystem of the host the Ambari Server runs on that is accessible by the user the Ambari Server is running as. Direct network access to the Ambari Server is required to issue this request, and those Ambari Servers that are protected behind a firewall, or in a restricted network zone are at less risk of being affected by this issue.
CVE-2014-3582 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2017-05-31 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
In Ambari 1.2.0 through 2.2.2, it may be possible to execute arbitrary system commands on the Ambari Server host while generating SSL certificates for hosts in an Ambari cluster.
CVE-2017-5654 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2017-05-23 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
In Ambari 2.4.x (before 2.4.3) and Ambari 2.5.0, an authorized user of the Ambari Hive View may be able to gain unauthorized read access to files on the host where the Ambari server executes.
CVE-2017-5655 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2017-05-23 4.0 MEDIUM 6.5 MEDIUM
In Ambari 2.2.2 through 2.4.2 and Ambari 2.5.0, sensitive data may be stored on disk in temporary files on the Ambari Server host. The temporary files are readable by any user authenticated on the host.
CVE-2016-6807 1 Apache 1 Ambari 2017-04-04 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
Custom commands may be executed on Ambari Agent (2.4.x, before 2.4.2) hosts without authorization, leading to unauthorized access to operations that may affect the underlying system. Such operations are invoked by the Ambari Agent process on Ambari Agent hosts, as the user executing the Ambari Agent process.
