Summary
In Apache Kylin version 2.0.0 to 4.0.3, there is a Server Config web interface that displays the content of file 'kylin.properties', that may contain serverside credentials. When the kylin service runs over HTTP (or other plain text protocol), it is possible for network sniffers to hijack the HTTP payload and get access to the content of kylin.properties and potentially the containing credentials. To avoid this threat, users are recommended to  * Always turn on HTTPS so that network payload is encrypted. * Avoid putting credentials in kylin.properties, or at least not in plain text. * Use network firewalls to protect the serverside such that it is not accessible to external attackers. * Upgrade to version Apache Kylin 4.0.4, which filters out the sensitive content that goes to the Server Config web interface.

      "value": "En Apache Kylin versi\u00f3n 2.0.0 a 4.0.3, hay una interfaz web de configuraci\u00f3n de servidor que muestra el contenido del archivo \u0027kylin.properties\u0027, que puede contener credenciales del lado del servidor. Cuando el servicio kylin se ejecuta a trav\u00e9s de HTTP (u otro protocolo de texto plano), es posible que los rastreadores de red secuestren el payload HTTP y obtengan acceso al contenido de kylin.properties y potencialmente a las credenciales que lo contienen. Para evitar esta amenaza, se recomienda a los usuarios\u0026#xa0;* activar siempre HTTPS para que el payload de la red est\u00e9 cifrado. * Evite poner credenciales en kylin.properties, o al menos no en texto plano. * Utilice firewalls de red para proteger el lado del servidor de modo que no sea accesible para atacantes externos. * Actualice a la versi\u00f3n Apache Kylin 4.0.4, que filtra el contenido confidencial que va a la interfaz web de Server Config."
