Readycheck to confirm it

The vulnerability has the potential to enable a remote attacker with authentication to run any code on the system. This is due to unsafe deserialization that occurs during the configuration of the connector through the Kafka Connect REST API

Impact

Authenticated attackers can exploit unsafe deserialization in the Kafka Connect REST API to execute arbitrary code through JNDI injection, potentially compromising the entire Apache Druid data analytics infrastructure.

Fix

Apply Apache Druid security patches that validate and sanitize SASL JAAS configuration in Kafka connector settings to prevent JNDI injection attacks.

How to confirm it

Send: POST /druid/indexer/v1/sampler?for=connect
Positive when: contains in interactsh_protocol "dns" AND contains "RecordSupplier" AND status 400
