Description
This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Remote code execution (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-15095)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists in the jackson-databind development library due to improper implementation of blacklists for input handled by the ObjectMapper object readValue method. A remote unauthenticated attacker can send a malicious input and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) XXE attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-14720)
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.
3) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-14721)
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.
4) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19360)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to fail to block the axis2-transport-jmsclass from polymorphic deserialization. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input to perform unauthorized actions on the system, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19361)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to fail to block the openjpa class from polymorphic deserialization. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input to perform unauthorized actions on the system, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.
6) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-19362)
The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition or execute arbitrary code.
The vulnerability exists due to fail to block the jboss-common-coreclass from polymorphic deserialization. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request that submits malicious input to perform unauthorized actions on the system, which could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.
7) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-14893)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data of malicious objects using the xalan JNDI gadget when used in conjunction with polymorphic type handling methods such as "enableDefaultTyping()" or when @JsonTypeInfo is using "Id.CLASS" or "Id.MINIMAL_CLASS" or in any other way which ObjectMapper.readValue might instantiate objects from unsafe sources. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
