CVE-2023-41180: Apache Nifi Minifi C++

Medium severity, CVSS 5.9. EPSS: 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Incorrect certificate validation in InvokeHTTP on Apache NiFi MiNiFi C++ versions 0.13 to 0.14 allows an intermediary to present a forged certificate during TLS handshake negotation. The Disable Peer Verification property of InvokeHTTP was effectively flipped, disabling verification by default, when using HTTPS. Mitigation: Set the Disable Peer Verification property of InvokeHTTP to true when using MiNiFi C++ versions 0.13.0 or 0.14.0. Upgrading to MiNiFi C++ 0.15.0 corrects the default behavior.

Affected products

  • Apache Nifi Minifi C++: from 0.13.0, up to and including 0.14.0
