[GitHub] [incubator-streampipes] HelenParr opened a new pull request, #83: Potential security vulnerability in the lz4 C library. Can you help upgrade to patch versions?

URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-streampipes/pull/83

   Hi, @tejoha , @wipatrick , I'd like to report a vulnerable dependency in **org.apache.streampipes:streampipes-wrapper-spark:0.69.0**.
   ### Issue Description
   I noticed that **org.apache.streampipes:streampipes-wrapper-spark:0.69.0** directly depends on **org.lz4:lz4-java:1.5.0**. However, as shown in the following dependency graph, **org.lz4:lz4-java:1.5.0** sufferes from the vulnerabilities which the C library **lz4(version:1.8.3)** exposed, containing 2 CVEs: [CVE-2021-3520](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-3520),[CVE-2019-17543](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-17543).
   ### Dependency Graph between Java and Shared Libraries
   ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/103260963/163203686-a8c26226-d436-4808-97d9-9490aa6e818c.png)
   
   Furthermore, the vulnerable methods in the vulnerable shared libraries can be actually invoked by Java code. For instance, the following LZ4-JNI interfaces(Java code): `LZ4JNIFastDecompressor::decompress()`, `LZ4JNISafeDecompressor::decompress()`, `LZ4JNICompressor::compress()`  can reach the vulnerable method(C code)  `LZ4_write32()` reported by [CVE-2019-17543](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-17543). 
   ```
   call chain----
   LZ4JNISafeDecompressor::decompress() -> LZ4_decompress_safe() -> LZ4_decompress_generic() -> LZ4_write32()
   LZ4JNIFastDecompressor::decompress() -> LZ4_decompress_fast() -> LZ4_decompress_generic() -> LZ4_write32()
   LZ4JNICompressor::compress() -> LZ4_compress_limitedOutput() -> LZ4_compress_default -> LZ4_compress_fast -> LZ4_compress_fast_extState() -> LZ4_compress_generic() -> LZ4_write32()
   ```
   
   ### Suggested Vulnerability Patch Versions
   **org.lz4:lz4-java:1.7.0** (**>=1.7.0**) has upgraded this vulnerable C library `lz4` to the patch version **1.9.2**. 
   
   Java build tools cannot report vulnerable C libraries, which may induce potential security issues to many downstream Java projects. Could you please upgrade this vulnerable dependency?
   
   Thanks for your help~
   Best regards,
   Helen Parr
