CVE-2024-8285 Information

Description

A flaw was found in Kroxylicious. When establishing the connection with the upstream Kafka server using a TLS secured connection Kroxylicious fails to properly verify the server’s hostname resulting in an insecure connection. For a successful attack to be performed the attacker needs to perform a Man-in-the-Middle attack or compromise any external systems such as DNS or network routing configuration. This issue is considered a high complexity attack with additional high privileges required as the attack would need access to the Kroxylicious configuration or a peer system. The result of a successful attack impacts both data integrity and confidentiality.
