CVE-2020-9482: Apache NiFi Registry user log out issue

Severity: Moderate

Versions Affected:

    Apache NiFi Registry 0.1.0 - 0.5.0

Description: If NiFi Registry uses an authentication mechanism other
than PKI, when the user clicks Log Out, NiFi Registry invalidates the
authentication token on the client side but not on the server side. This
permits the user's client-side token to be used for up to 12 hours after
logging out to make API requests to NiFi Registry.

Mitigation: The fix to invalidate the server-side authentication token
immediately after the user clicks 'Log Out' was applied in the Apache
NiFi Registry 0.6.0 release.
