Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-1945)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to Apache Ant is using a default temporary directory identified by the Java system property java.io.tmpdir for several tasks and may thus leak sensitive information. The fixcrlf and replaceregexp tasks also copy files from the temporary directory back into the build tree allowing an attacker to inject modified source files into the build process. A local user with access to the system can view contents of files and directories or modify them.


2) Deserialization of untrusted data (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-5645)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The weakness exists receiving serialized log events from another application when using the TCP socket server or UDP socket server. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted binary payload, when deserialized, and execute arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.
