Security readout for executives and security teams
Apache Livy 0.7.0-incubating has a cross-site scripting flaw in session names. A malicious user could use it to view other users' session logs and results or run jobs under their privileges. The issue is fixed in Livy 0.7.1-incubating. Exposure is limited to organizations running Apache Livy 0.7.0-incubating. Risk is higher where Livy is reachable by multiple users or tied to sensitive Spark workloads and shared session results. Prioritize remediation where Livy supports shared analytics, production Spark jobs, or sensitive data. The affected version scope is narrow, but the stated impact includes data exposure and privilege misuse across users. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Apache Livy 0.7.0-incubating to 0.7.1-incubating or later vendor-guided release.; Restrict Livy access to trusted users until remediation is complete.; Review Livy session logs for suspicious session names and cross-user activity..
