Graylog's Authenticated HTTP inputs ingest message even if Authorization header is missing or has wrong value
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maven | org.graylog2:graylog2-server | >= 6.1.0, < 6.1.9 | 6.1.9 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
Starting with 6.1, HTTP Inputs can be configured to check if a specified header is present and has a specified value to authenticate HTTP-based ingestion. Unfortunately, even though in cases of a missing header or a wrong value the correct HTTP response (401) is returned, the message will be ingested nonetheless.
### Patches
### Workarounds
Disabling http-based inputs and allow only authenticated pull-based inputs.
