Vulnerability in Apache (CVE-2026-82437)
Summary
Vulnerability in Apache (CVE-2026-82437). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via logs.users.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Description
The Logviewer offers logs.users and logs.groups so operators can control who may read log content. For
daemon logs those settings were not applied: the access decision combined the "this is a daemon log" flag
with the authorizer result in a way that discarded the authorizer's answer whenever the flag was set, and
the daemon log page and download endpoints reached the handler without consulting an authorizer at all. Any
user able to pass the configured servlet filter could therefore read nimbus.log, supervisor.log and the
other daemon logs on every reachable node, which contain other tenants' topology names, owners and
configuration fragments.
The same advisory covers the log listing endpoints, which accepted a user argument and never applied it, so
/listLogs and /searchLogs returned every tenant's topology and worker log file names regardless of the
caller. That part is metadata only.
There was no configuration that closed either behaviour.
Mitigation
Upgrade to 3.1.0, where the daemon log paths evaluate the same configured user and group lists that the
worker log paths already used, and the listing endpoints filter by the requesting user.
Users who cannot upgrade immediately should place the Logviewer behind a reverse proxy that restricts the
daemon log endpoints, and should treat daemon log content as readable by any filter-authenticated user.

CVE-2026-82437 (Apache) — CWE-862 / CVSS v3 4.3
Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: logs.users / logs.groups / nimbus.log / supervisor.log
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
A vulnerability (CWE-862) exists in Apache. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via logs.users.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Apache. Attack surface: logs.users / logs.groups / nimbus.log / supervisor.log.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 4.3/10). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Update to the patched release per vendor advisory.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.
Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'Apache' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.
