Orca Security disclosed three high-risk vulnerabilities in Azure HDInsight affecting Apache Ambari and Apache Oozie: CVE-2023-38156 (Ambari JDBC endpoint can be abused to drop a reverse shell and escalate to root), CVE-2023-36419 (Oozie XXE allowing file reads and privilege escalation), and a separate Oozie input-validation bug that can cause a denial-of-service by freezing the dashboard; Microsoft released fixes on Oct 26 and HDInsight users must recreate clusters on the latest platform version to apply the updates.
