Description

Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability in Apache Answer.

This issue affects Apache Answer: through 2.0.0.

The unlisted question feature did not enforce access restrictions on direct API endpoints, allowing authenticated users to discover and access unlisted questions, their answers, comments, and revision history. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.1, which fixes the issue.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency

  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/apache/incubator-answer, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update github.com/apache/incubator-answer to 1.7.2-0.20260509071350-11c80384f13a or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-85r2-pvg8-89r9 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    Assume what was exposed is already known: rotate any credential, token or key that the affected component could return, restrict the endpoint to callers that genuinely need it, and strip sensitive fields from responses and error output at the boundary rather than relying on the client not to read them.
