Please review its claims and source references carefully before acting on them. # Summary The Key Vault client accepts any configured vault URL and authenticates with ambient Azure credentials, turning mis-scoped config into token exfiltration risk. # Affected Maven coordinates * primary shipped client artifact: `org.apache.iceberg:iceberg-azure` * bundle artifact: `org.apache.iceberg:iceberg-azure-bundle` # Attacker prerequisites * control over the affected catalog response, configuration surface, or spec-consumed routing value * a client or service that honors the affected configuration without an additional allow-list # Impact * A malicious or mis-scoped configuration can redirect Key Vault authentication traffic to a non-Key-Vault endpoint. * That can expose bearer tokens or other auth context to an attacker-controlled service. * This is less exposed than the ADLS location issue because it is config-driven rather than metadata-driven, but it is still an endpoint-trust break. # Proof status I reproduced this locally with a targeted reproducer or exploit. The observed result matches the trigger and impact described above. # Key source references * org.apache.iceberg.azure.AzureProperties * org.apache.iceberg.azure.keymanagement.AzureKeyManagementClient Current severity assessment [2]: Moderate [1] https://iceberg.apache.org/security/ [2] https://security.apache.org/blog/severityrating/ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
