How to Fix CVE-2024-29868

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Apache StreamPipes 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.streampipes:streampipes-resource-management fixed: 0.95.0
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.streampipes</groupId>
    <artifactId>streampipes-resource-management</artifactId>
    <version>0.95.0</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.streampipes

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2024-29868, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

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

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Apache StreamPipes in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.95.0), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.streampipes 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-338: Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG), where the product uses a pseudo-random number generator (prng) in a security context, but the prng's algorithm is not cryptographically strong. In Apache StreamPipes, 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

Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) vulnerability in Apache StreamPipes user self-registration and password recovery mechanism. This allows an attacker to guess the recovery token in a reasonable time and thereby to take over the attacked user's account. This issue affects Apache StreamPipes: from 0.69.0 through 0.93.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 0.95.0, which fixes the issue.
