A significant vulnerability exists in the OpenMetadata platform, found in the EventSubscriptionRepository.prepare() method, which utilizes AlertUtil::validateExpression. This flaw can result in Remote Code Execution due to improper handling of SpEL expressions. The vulnerability is triggered when an attacker sends a crafted PUT request to /api/v1/events/subscriptions, allowing unauthorized evaluation of expressions before an authorization check. The risk emphasizes the critical importance of upgrading to version 1.2.4, as no known workarounds exist to prevent exploitation.
