Severity: important 

Affected versions:

- Apache Livy (org.apache.livy:livy-server) 0.7.0-incubating before 
0.9.0-incubating

Description:

Malicious configuration can lead to unauthorized file access in Apache Livy.

This issue affects Apache Livy 0.7.0 and 0.8.0 when connecting to Apache Spark 
3.1 or later.

A request that includes a Spark configuration value supported from Apache Spark 
version 3.1 can lead to users gaining access to files they do not have 
permissions to.

For the vulnerability to be exploitable, the user needs to have access to 
Apache Livy's REST or JDBC interface and be able to send requests with 
arbitrary Spark configuration values.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 0.9.0 or later, which fixes the 
issue.
