CVE-2020-10771Network attack vector

Cluster state alteration via state-changing REST GET requests

Published Jun 2, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Cross-site request forgery in Red Hat Data Grid 8.2.0 allows remote attackers to alter cluster state through crafted REST requests. The Infinispan REST layer accepts GET requests for state-changing actions, including shutdown, task execution, backup-state changes, and counter updates. An authenticated user's browser must submit the crafted request, and the resulting action can modify data or replication state, execute configured tasks, or interrupt service.
