Missing Authorization in Apache ZooKeeper
High7.5CVE-2018-8012 · Published May 13, 2022 · updated Nov 8, 2023
No authentication/authorization is enforced when a server attempts to join a quorum in Apache ZooKeeper before 3.4.10, and 3.5.0-alpha through 3.5.3-beta. As a result an arbitrary end point could join the cluster and begin propagating counterfeit changes to the leader.
