Introduction
-
CVE-2024-32030 is a critical vulnerability affecting Kafka UI, an open-source web UI for managing Apache Kafka.
-
The vulnerability allows remote code execution (RCE) by exploiting the JMX metrics collection feature.
-
An attacker can exploit this by connecting Kafka UI backend to a malicious broker, leading to deserialization attacks.
-
The issue is particularly dangerous as Kafka UI does not have authentication enabled by default.
-
The vulnerability is addressed in Kafka UI version 0.7.2; users are advised to upgrade immediately.
-
There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
Vulnerability Details [1]
-
CVE-2024-32030 affects Kafka UI, an open-source web UI for managing Apache Kafka.
-
