Last modified

CVE-2019-12399 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. When Connect workers in Apache Kafka 2.0.0, 2.0.1, 2.1.0, 2.1.1, 2.2.0, 2.2.1, or 2.3.0 are configured with one or more config providers, and a connector is created/updated on that Connect cluster to use an externalized secret variable in a substring of a connector configuration property value, then any client can issue a request to the same Connect cluster to obtain the connector's task configuration and the response will contain the plaintext secret rather than the externalized secrets variables.. EPSS estimates a 3.91% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
