Credential disclosure via unredacted topology configuration

Published Sep 14, 2026 · Updated Sep 14, 2026

Information disclosure in Apache Storm Nimbus and UI 3.0.0 allows remote authenticated users to read daemon credentials through topology APIs. getTopologyPageInfo merges Nimbus daemon and topology configuration, returns topology_conf without redaction, and the UI copies it into topology and metrics responses. A principal with topology read-only access can retrieve configured ZooKeeper authentication payloads and TLS keystore or truststore passwords.
