Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Apache Hive's hive-exec package, versions before 4.0.1, creates a credentials file in a temporary directory with 644 permissions by default when file permissions are not set explicitly. A local user with access to that directory can read the sensitive information stored in the file. Upgrade hive-exec to version 4.0.1, which fixes the issue.
