CVE-2024-29178
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedOn versions before 2.1.4, a user could log in and perform a template injection attack resulting in Remote Code Execution on the server, The attacker must successfully log into the system to launch an attack, so this is a moderate-impact vulnerability. Mitigation: all users should upgrade to 2.1.4
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceAn authenticated template injection vulnerability in versions before 2.1.4 allows logged-in users to inject malicious template code that gets executed server-side, leading to remote code execution. Attackers exploit the template rendering engine by submitting specially crafted input through user-accessible functions.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if Apache Streampark is deployedCheck for running Java processes or look for Streampark installation directories, typically under /opt/streampark, /usr/local/streampark, or the application's deployment pathAffected if Apache Streampark is found running or installed on the system
-
Determine the installed Streampark versionCheck the version file or pom.xml in the Streampark installation directory, or query the application's web interface version endpoint if availableAffected if The version is lower than 2.1.4 (e.g., 2.1.3, 2.1.2, 2.1.0, or any pre-2.1.4 release)
-
Verify user authentication is enabledExamine the application configuration files (application.yml or application.properties) for authentication settings such as spring.security.user.name/password or similar security configurationsAffected if Authentication is disabled or uses default credentials, allowing unauthenticated access to user-facing functions
-
Check if user registration or account creation is allowedReview the security configuration to determine if self-registration is enabled or if low-privilege user accounts can be created through the web interfaceAffected if Users can register new accounts or obtain valid session credentials through the application
You are affected if Apache Streampark version is below 2.1.4 AND the application allows user authentication or account creation, enabling a logged-in user to access template rendering features.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped2.1.4
Upgrade to version 2.1.4 immediately. Since this is an authenticated attack vector, ensure compromised credentials are rotated as part of remediation.
Streampark 2.1.4
- 1. Back up your current Streampark installation, configuration files, and databases before upgrading
- 2. Download Streampark version 2.1.4 from the official Apache repository or release page
- 3. Stop the currently running Streampark service
- 4. Install or deploy version 2.1.4 following the standard installation procedure
- 5. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version number in the application
- 6. Restart the Streampark service
- 7. Log in and verify that normal functionality works correctly
- 8. Test that the template injection vulnerability is no longer present
