Description

A flaw was found in Feast and feast-operator. The default configuration for both the Feast SDK and the feast-operator is "no_auth," meaning no security manager is installed. This default allows unauthenticated and unauthorized access to feature-server, registry-server, and offline-server endpoints. A remote attacker, by exploiting this missing authentication, could achieve remote code execution (RCE) by storing a malicious User-Defined Function (UDF) on the feature-server, trigger a denial of service (DoS) by forcing re-materialization of all tenant features, and gain unauthorized access to cross-tenant data.
