Authenticated internal trace disclosure via error responses
Published Sep 6, 2023 · Updated Sep 26, 2024
Information disclosure in Apache Superset 2.1.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to read internal traces via REST API errors. The default SHOW_STACKTRACE setting is true, causing REST error handlers such as get_error_msg to serialize Python tracebacks into responses. A low-privileged account must trigger an endpoint error; the exposed trace reveals internal code paths and diagnostic details, with no direct write or service-interruption capability reported.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
