Goden Yao created HAWQ-59:
-----------------------------
Summary: Path Manipulation: HdfsAnalyzer.java
Key: HAWQ-59
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-59
Project: Apache HAWQ
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PXF
Reporter: Goden Yao
Priority: Critical
>From security tool scanning: Attackers can control the filesystem path
>argument to setInputPaths() at HdfsAnalyzer.java line 128, which allows them
>to access or modify otherwise protected files.
{code:java}
Ln 128: private ArrayList<InputSplit> getSplits(Path *path*) throws IOException
{
PxfInputFormat fformat = new PxfInputFormat();
PxfInputFormat.setInputPaths(jobConf, *path*);
...
}
{code}
_setInputPaths()_ uses a parameter passed from user:
{code:java}
Ln 59: @Override
public AnalyzerStats getEstimatedStats(String *datapath*) throws Exception {
long blockSize = 0;
long numberOfBlocks;
Path *path* = new Path(HdfsUtilities.absoluteDataPath(*datapath*));
ArrayList<InputSplit> splits = getSplits(*path*);
...
}
{code}
