| Description |
| Apache Mesos can be configured to require authentication to call the
Executor HTTP API using JSON Web Token (JWT). In Apache Mesos versions
pre-1.4.2, 1.5.0, 1.5.1, 1.6.0 the comparison of the generated HMAC
value against the provided signature in the JWT implementation used is
vulnerable to a timing attack because instead of a constant-time
string comparison routine a standard `==` operator has been used. A
malicious actor can therefore abuse the timing difference of when the
JWT validation function returns to reveal the correct HMAC value.
