Multiple vulnerabilities in FasterXML jackson-databind

1) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

EUVDB-ID: #VU17776

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 5.1 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-14721

CWE-ID: CWE-918 - Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to fail to block the axis2-jaxws class from polymorphic deserialization. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.

Mitigation

2) XXE attack

EUVDB-ID: #VU17777

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-14720

CWE-ID: CWE-611 - Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference ('XXE')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform XXE attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to fail to block unspecified Java Development Kit (JDK) classes from polymorphic deserialization. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input, conduct an XXE attack to access sensitive information, bypass security restrictions, or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on the targeted system.
