CVSS base score: 8.8 (High) CISA · v3.1
Score assigned by CISA's Vulnrichment program; the vendor's CVE record did not include one.
Vendor: Apache Software Foundation Product: Apache NiFi
Apache NiFi 0.0.2 through 1.22.0 include Processors and Controller Services that support HTTP URL references for retrieving drivers, which allows an authenticated and authorized user to configure a location that enables custom code execution. The resolution introduces a new Required Permission for referencing remote resources, restricting configuration of these components to privileged users. The permission prevents unprivileged users from configuring Processors and Controller Services annotated with the new Reference Remote Resources restriction. Upgrading to Apache NiFi 1.23.0 is the recommended mitigation.
Each milestone comes from a different source, so gaps between them are gaps in what those sources publish, not evidence that nothing happened. EPSS history for this CVE holds 177 points from 2023-07-29, tracked daily from 2026-09-09; earlier points are weekly, which dates a spike to within a week. Peak probability 14.2% on 2025-03-29.

What each source publishes about which product versions carry this vulnerability, kept as written rather than merged. Absence here means no source has published applicability data, not that nothing is affected.
No mentions found in monitored research blogs or news feeds.
Coverage across public collections only: Nuclei and OpenVAS NVT (scan);
Snort and Suricata ET Open (network); Sigma and YARA (host/SIEM);
Metasploit, Exploit-DB and public GitHub repositories (exploit). Absence
here means nothing public was found, not that detection is impossible.
GitHub PoC repositories are collected automatically by
PoC-in-GitHub (CC0) and are not vetted:
some are fakes and some are malware. Treat them as evidence that code was
published, not as code to run.

Evidence tiers are explained on the About page — a merged Metasploit module is far stronger evidence than a distro package mention.
