What is CVE-2024-22409?

The vulnerability in DataHub allows low privileged users to escalate privileges by removing other users or altering group membership and profile information. This situation arises due to the default settings that granted excessive permissions to low privileged accounts. If an administrator group is present, this could potentially lead to unauthorized access and control over sensitive aspects of the platform. Users are advised to upgrade to DataHub version 0.12.1, which has mitigated this risk by imposing stricter limits on user permissions.

Affected Version(s)

datahub < 0.12.1
