*Description :**Description :* *Severity :* CVE CVSS 3: 7.5Sonatype CVSS 3: 8.2
 
 *Weakness :* CVE CWE: 20
 
 *Source :* National Vulnerability Database
 
 *Categories :* Data 
 *Description from CVE :* Apache Thrift Java client library versions 0.5.0 through 0.11.0 can bypass SASL negotiation isComplete validation in the org.apache.thrift.transport.TSaslTransport class. An assert used to determine if the SASL handshake had successfully completed could be disabled in production settings making the validation incomplete.
 
 *Explanation :* The libthrift component is vulnerable to Improper Access Control. The open[] method of the TSaslTransport class incorrectly uses an assertion to validate whether or not the SASL handshake has successfully completed. In some cases, such as production builds, the assertion functionality can be disabled rendering the validation incomplete. In such a case, an attacker can exploit this by being able to login without actually successfully completing the SASL handshake. 
 *Detection :* The application is vulnerable by using this component. 
 *Recommendation :* We recommend upgrading to a version of this component that is not vulnerable to this specific issue. 
 *Root Cause :* apache-cassandra-3.11.4-bin.tar.gzorg/apache/thrift/transport/TSaslTransport.class : [0.5.0, 0.12.0]
