      <body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
	<p>Apache Kafka Connect contains an authentication bypass vulnerability
	  affecting the admin REST API when admin.listeners is configured with a
	  separate listener from the main listeners property.</p>
	<p>When operators isolate the admin REST API by explicitly configuring
	  the "admin.listeners" property, REST extensions specified via
	  rest.extension.classes (such as BasicAuthSecurityRestExtension) are
	  not registered or applied to the admin resource configuration.</p>
	<p>While the primary REST API listener (configured via listeners)
	  enforces configured authentication and authorization filters,
	  endpoints mounted under the separate admin listener (/admin/loggers)
	  fail to inherit or instantiate these extension filters. As a result,
	  the admin logger endpoint accepts unauthenticated read and write
	  requests even when security extensions are active on the main
	  listener.</p>
	<p>Impact:</p>
	<p>An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the admin listener
	  can:</p>
	<p>1. Read the complete set of logger names and levels, disclosing loaded
	  class names and which security extensions are in use. 2. Write logger
	  levels, including with scope=cluster which propagates the change to
	  all workers in the Connect cluster. This can be used to suppress
	  logging (setting root to OFF) or generate excessive log output
	  (setting root to TRACE), potentially impacting availability and
	  observability.</p>
	<p>Mitigation:</p>
	<p>Users who cannot upgrade immediately can remove the admin.listeners
	  configuration (or leave it unset). When unset, admin resources share
	  the regular listener and inherit its security extensions.</p>
	<p>Resolution:</p>
	<p>From Apache Kafka 4.2.2, 4.3.2, and 4.4.0, we make sure the REST
	  extensions specified via "rest.extension.classes" will also apply to
	  "admin.listeners".</p>
