Apache Storm UI: Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via Unsanitized Topology Metadata in Storm UI

Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via Unsanitized Topology Metadata in Apache Storm UI Versions Affected: before 2.8.6 Description: The Storm UI visualization component interpolates topology metadata including component IDs, stream names, and grouping values directly into HTML via innerHTML in parseNode() and parseEdge() without sanitization at any layer. An authenticated user with topology submission rights could craft a topology containing malicious HTML/JavaScript in component identifiers (e.g., a bolt ID containing an onerror event handler). This payload flows through Nimbus → Thrift → the Visualization API → vis.js tooltip rendering, resulting in stored cross-site scripting.  In multi-tenant deployments where topology submission is available to less-trusted users but the UI is accessed by operators or administrators, this enables privilege escalation through script execution in an admin's browser session. Mitigation: 2.x users should upgrade to 2.8.6. Users who cannot upgrade immediately should monkey-patch the parseNode() and parseEdge() functions in the visualization JavaScript file to HTML-escape all API-supplied values including nodeId, :capacity, :latency, :component, :stream, and :grouping before interpolation into tooltip HTML strings, and should additionally restrict topology submission to trusted users via Nimbus ACLs as a defense-in-depth measure. A guide on how to do this is available in the release notes of 2.8.6.

Apache Storm 安全漏洞

Apache Storm是美国阿帕奇（Apache）基金会的一套采用Clojure（并发编程语言）开发的开源分布式实时计算系统。 Apache Storm 2.8.6之前版本存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于Storm UI组件未对拓扑元数据进行清理，可能导致存储型跨站脚本攻击。
