Vulnerability Details:
Pentaho implements a series of web services using the SOAP
protocol to
allow scripting interaction with the backend server. HAWSEC
identified that
the services userRoleListService and ServiceAction exposed through
the
"/pentaho/webservices/userRoleListService" and
"/pentaho/ServiceAction?action=SecurityDetails" endpoints are not
enforcing
sufficient access controls. Specifically, an authenticated user can
list
all application usernames present in the Jackrabbit Repository.
