The gfsh (Geode Shell) endpoint, used by operators and application developers to connect to their cluster, is unauthenticated and publicly accessible. Because HTTPS communications are terminated at the gorouter, communications from the gorouter to GemFire clusters are unencrypted. An attacker could run any command available on gfsh and could cause denial of service, lost confidentiality of data, escalate privileges, or eavesdrop on other communications between the gorouter and the cluster."

El punto final gfsh (Geode Shell), utilizado por operadores y desarrolladores de aplicaciones para conectar a su cluster, no está autenticado y es públicamente accesible. Debido a que las comunicaciones HTTPS terminan en el gorouter, las comunicaciones desde el gorouter a los clusters GemFire no están cifradas. Un atacante podría ejecutar cualquier comando disponible en gfsh y podría provocar denegación de servicio, pérdida de la confidencialidad de los datos, escalar privilegios o escuchar otras comunicaciones entre el gorouter y el cluster."
