      <title>CVE-2026-40557 — Apache Storm Prometheus Reporter: Disabling TLS verification for Prometheus Reporter also disables it for all other con…</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2026-40557</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Apache Software Foundation Apache Storm Prometheus Reporter&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Improper Certificate Validation via Global SSL Context Downgrade in Apache Storm Prometheus Reporter&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Versions Affected: from 2.6.3 to 2.8.6&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Description:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In production deployments where an administrator enables storm.daemon.metrics.reporter.plugin.prometheus.skip_tls_validation (by default it is disabled) intending to affect only the Prometheus reporter, the undocumented global side effect creates an attack surface across every TLS-protected communication channel in the Storm daemon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PrometheusPreparableReporter class implements an INSECURE_TRUST_MANAGER that accepts all SSL certificates without validation, with empty checkClientTrusted and checkServerTrusted methods. Most critically, when the storm.daemon.metrics.reporter.plugin.prometheus.skip_tls_validation configuration option is enabled (default = disabled) for HTTPS Prometheus PushGateway connections, the INSECURE_CONNECTION_FACTORY calls SSLContext.setDefault(sslContext), which globally replaces the JVM&amp;#39;s default SSL context rather than applying the insecure context only to the Prometheus connection. This payload flows through storm.yaml configuration → PrometheusPreparableReporter.prepare() → INSECURE_CONNECTION_FACTORY → SSLContext.setDefault(), resulting in a JVM-wide TLS security downgrade. All subsequent HTTPS connections in the process - including ZooKeeper, Thrift, Netty, and UI connections - silently trust all certificates, including self-signed, expired, and attacker-generated ones, enabling man-in…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
