Severity: moderate

Affected versions:

- Apache NiFi 0.0.2 through 1.22.0

Description:

Apache NiFi 0.0.2 through 1.22.0 include Processors and Controller Services 
that support HTTP URL references for retrieving drivers, which allows an 
authenticated and authorized user to configure a location that enables custom 
code execution. The resolution introduces a new Required Permission for 
referencing remote resources, restricting configuration of these components to 
privileged users. The permission prevents unprivileged users from configuring 
Processors and Controller Services annotated with the new Reference Remote 
Resources restriction. Upgrading to Apache NiFi 1.23.0 is the recommended 
mitigation.
