CVE-2023-41916: Apache Linkis DataSource: DatasourceManager module has a JDBC parameter judgment logic vulnerability that allows for arbitrary file reading

In Apache Linkis =1.4.0, due to the lack of effective filtering of parameters, an attacker configuring malicious Mysql JDBC parameters in the DataSource Manager Module will trigger arbitrary file reading. Therefore, the parameters in the Mysql JDBC URL should be blacklisted. This attack requires the attacker to obtain an authorized account from Linkis before it can be carried out. Versions of Apache Linkis = 1.4.0 will be affected.  We recommend users upgrade the version of Linkis to version 1.5.0.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Apache Linkis 1.4.0 has a flaw in its DataSource Manager that can let a logged-in user read files by abusing MySQL JDBC parameters. This is mainly a confidentiality risk. It is not reported as actively exploited in the supplied sources, but it matters where Linkis is shared, internet-facing, or stores secrets. Exposure is limited to Apache Linkis DataSource version 1.4.0. The attack requires an authorized Linkis account with ability to configure datasource settings. Systems are higher risk if many users can access DataSource Manager or if Linkis can reach sensitive local files. Treat this as a prompt but bounded remediation item. It is not described as actively exploited, but it can expose sensitive files to authenticated users. Prioritize shared or externally reachable Linkis deployments first, especially where service configuration contains credentials. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Apache Linkis to version 1.5.0.; Restrict DataSource Manager access to trusted users until upgraded.; Review vendor advisories before applying custom backports..
