Authenticated metadata disclosure via datasource ID enumeration
Published Aug 14, 2025 · Updated Nov 4, 2025
Improper authorization in Apache Superset before 5.0.0 allows remote authenticated users to disclose protected datasource names through /explore. The endpoint accepts a caller-controlled datasource_id and returns existence and name metadata without checking that user's datasource permission. A valid account is required, and repeated identifiers reveal protected datasource inventory rather than datasource contents.
