Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Hive Metastore Server in org.apache.hive:hive-common and org.apache.hive:hive-metastore, versions 4.1.0 up to but not including 4.2.0, is vulnerable to SQL injection when handling delete column statistics requests through the Thrift APIs. An attacker needs to be a trusted or authorized user or application allowed to call those Thrift APIs directly. Upgrade to 4.2.0; users who cannot upgrade can set metastore.try.direct.sql to false if the Thrift APIs are exposed to the public.
