How to Fix CVE-2024-45384

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Druid pac4j dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

org.apache.druid.extensions:druid-pac4j fixed: 30.0.1 
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.druid.extensions</groupId>
    <artifactId>druid-pac4j</artifactId>
    <version>30.0.1</version>
</dependency>
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.druid.extensions

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2024-45384, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.druid.extensions

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Druid pac4j in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 30.0.1), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.druid.extensions command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-209: Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information, where the product generates an error message that includes sensitive information about its environment, users, or associated data. In Druid pac4j, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Padding Oracle vulnerability in Apache Druid extension, druid-pac4j. This could allow an attacker to manipulate a pac4j session cookie. This issue affects Apache Druid versions 0.18.0 through 30.0.0. Since the druid-pac4j extension is optional and disabled by default, Druid installations not using the druid-pac4j extension are not affected by this vulnerability. While we are not aware of a way to meaningfully exploit this flaw, we nevertheless recommend upgrading to version 30.0.1 or higher which fixes the issue and ensuring you have a strong druid.auth.pac4j.cookiePassphrase as a precaution.
