How to Fix CVE-2022-28889

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Druid 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:druid fixed: 0.23.0
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.druid</groupId>
    <artifactId>druid</artifactId>
    <version>0.23.0</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

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2022-28889, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

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

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Druid in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.23.0), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.druid 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-1021: Improper Restriction of Rendered UI Layers or Frames, where the web application does not restrict or incorrectly restricts frame objects or ui layers that belong to another application or domain. In Druid, 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

In Apache Druid 0.22.1 and earlier, the server did not set appropriate headers to prevent clickjacking. Druid 0.23.0 and later prevent clickjacking using the Content-Security-Policy header.
