Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36364)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in JDBC driver, which creates HTTP client instances based on class names provided via "httpclient_impl" connection property. The driver does not verify if the class implements the expected interface before instantiating it. A remote user with ability to control JDBC connection parameters can inject arbitrary class name and execute code on the system.
