CVE-2024-31411
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 · uneditedUnrestricted Upload of File with dangerous type vulnerability in Apache StreamPipes. Such a dangerous type might be an executable file that may lead to a remote code execution (RCE). The unrestricted upload is only possible for authenticated and authorized users. This issue affects Apache StreamPipes: through 0.93.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 0.95.0, which fixes the issue.
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 · high confidenceApache StreamPices through version 0.93.0 contains an unrestricted file upload vulnerability allowing authenticated and authorized users to upload dangerous file types (e.g., executables) that could result in remote code execution on the underlying system.

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 the installed Apache Streampipes versionCheck the version by reviewing the Streampipes installation directory, checking the pom.xml file if source is available, or querying the application's About/API endpoint if available. Common locations include the streampipes-version.jar filename or version.properties in the config directory.Affected if The installed version is 0.93.0 or any version prior to 0.95.0
-
Verify if user authentication is enabledCheck the Streampipes configuration files (typically in the conf or config directory) for authentication settings. Look for security-related configurations in application.yml, application.properties, or streampipes-config.yaml.Affected if Authentication is enabled and users can log in, as the vulnerability affects authenticated and authorized users
-
Confirm file upload functionality is accessibleInspect the Streampipes web interface or API documentation to determine if there is a file upload feature available to users. This may include pipeline element uploads, data sink configurations, or custom adapter uploads.Affected if The file upload capability exists and is accessible to authenticated users in the environment
-
Check for unrestricted file type handlingReview the Streampipes configuration or logs to see if there are restrictions on file extensions or MIME types when uploading files. Look for upload whitelist/blacklist configurations.Affected if There are no restrictions or inadequate restrictions on the types of files that can be uploaded (e.g., .exe, .sh, .jar files are permitted)
You are affected if your Streampipes installation is version 0.95.0 or earlier, has user authentication enabled, and includes a file upload feature that permits dangerous file types like executables.

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 · scoped0.95.0
Upgrade Apache StreamPipes to version 0.95.0 or later, which addresses the unrestricted file upload vulnerability.
0.95.0
- Backup the current Apache StreamPipes installation and database
- Stop the StreamPipes service
- Download Apache StreamPipes version 0.95.0 from the official Apache repository
- Install or upgrade to version 0.95.0 following the standard installation instructions
- Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version number
- Start the StreamPipes service
- Confirm the service is running correctly and the file upload functionality works as expected
