Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.

1) Deserialization of untrusted data

EUVDB-ID: #VU12898

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 7.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2016-4978

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The weakness exists in the getObject method of the javax.jms.ObjectMessage class in the (1) JMS Core client, (2) Artemis broker, and (3) Artemis REST component due to deserialization of untrusted data. A remote attacker with permission to send messages to the Artemis broker can deserialize arbitrary objects and execute arbitrary code by leveraging gadget classes being present on the Artemis classpath.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

Vulnerable software versions

JBoss Enterprise Application Platform: 6.0.0 - 6.4.0

2) Path traversal

EUVDB-ID: #VU12899

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-3163

CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the atrget system.

The weakness exists the Index Replication feature due to pulling index files from a master/leader node using an HTTP API which accepts a file name and improper validation of the file name. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted special request, conduct path traversal attack, leaving any file readable to the Solr server process exposed.

Mitigation

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-7525

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Exploit availability: Yes

Description

The 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.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.

4) Remote code execution

EUVDB-ID: #VU9607

Risk: High

CVSSv3.1: 8.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2017-15095

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

Exploit availability: No

Description

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.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.

5) Deserialization of untrusted data

EUVDB-ID: #VU10257

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-2017-17485

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

Exploit availability: No

Description

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

The weakness exists in the FasterXML jackson-databind library due to improper validation of user-input handled by the readValue method of the ObjectMapper object. A remote attacker can send malicious input to the vulnerable method of a web application that uses the Spring library in the application's classpath and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in system compromise.

Mitigation

Install update from vendor's website.
