In HDP Server versions below 4.6.2.2978 on Linux, unauthorized access could occur via IP spoofing using the X-Forwarded-For header. 

Since XFF is a client-controlled header, it could be spoofed, allowing unauthorized access if the spoofed IP matched a whitelisted range.


This vulnerability could be exploited to bypass IP restrictions, though valid user credentials would still be required for resource access.
Fixes

Solution

Update the HDP Server to version 4.6.2.2978 or later.
