Apiman has insufficient checks for read permissions

High severity GitHub Reviewed Published Dec 20, 2022 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Jan 29, 2023

Package

maven io.apiman:apiman-manager-api-rest-impl (Maven)

Affected versions

>= 1.5.7, <= 2.2.3.Final

Patched versions

3.0.0.Final

Description

Apiman 1.5.7 through 2.2.3.Final has insufficient checks for read permissions within the Apiman Manager REST API. A malicious user may be able to find and subscribe to private APIs they do not have permission for, thus accessing API Management-protected resources they should not be allowed to access. The root cause of the issue is the Apiman project's accidental acceptance of a large contribution that was not fully compatible with the security model of Apiman versions before 3.0.0.Final. Because of this, 3.0.0.Final is not affected by the vulnerability.
