Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure
EUVDB-ID: #VU9129
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 4.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2014-9970
CWE-ID:
CWE-200 - Information exposure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The weakness exists due to a flaw in the Jasypt component. A local attacker can conduct a timing attack on password hash comparison and obtain passwords on the target system.
Update to version 7.1.2.
Vulnerable software versionsJBoss Data Grid: 7.1.1

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
No. This vulnerability can be exploited locally. The attacker should have authentication credentials and successfully authenticate on the system.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Deserialization of untrusted data
EUVDB-ID: #VU10576
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-15089
CWE-ID:
CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary data on the target system.
The weakness exists due to unsafely read deserialized data on information from the cache. A remote attacker can inject specially-crafted serialized objects into data cache and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.
Update to version 7.1.2.
Vulnerable software versionsJBoss Data Grid: 7.1.1

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote authenticated user via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
3) Deserialization of untrusted data
EUVDB-ID: #VU9128
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7525
CWE-ID:
CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The weakness exists due to a deserialization flaw in the jackson-databind component. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted input to the readValue method of the ObjectMapper and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the target service.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.
Update to version 7.1.2.
Vulnerable software versionsJBoss Data Grid: 7.1.1
External linkshttp://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:0294
Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote non-authenticated attacker via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.
