CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe out_http output plugin in Fluentd versions prior to 1.19.3 is vulnerable, allowing attackers to manipulate the destination hostname of outbound HTTP requests by exploiting untrusted input in endpoint configurations. This could lead to unauthorized access to internal services, posing a significant risk to data integrity and confidentiality. Organizations using Fluentd for event collection should prioritize upgrading to version 1.19.3 or later to mitigate this high-severity vulnerability.

Original NVD Description
Fluentd collects events from various data sources and writes them to files, RDBMS, NoSQL, IaaS, SaaS, Hadoop and so on. Prior to 1.19.3, the Fluentd out_http output plugin allows placeholders such as ${tag} in the endpoint configuration parameter, and if a placeholder value is derived from untrusted input an attacker can control the destination hostname of outbound HTTP requests and force requests to arbitrary internal services. This issue is fixed in version 1.19.3.
