Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Improper Handling of Unexpected Data Type (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-4670)

CWE-ID: CWE-241 - Improper Handling of Unexpected Data Type

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote user to obtain sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper data representation. A remote user can trigger the vulnerability and obtain sensitive information.


2) Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-4163)

CWE-ID: CWE-77 - Command injection

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary commands on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote administrator can send a specially crafted file name which would be misinterpreted as jsp content and execute arbitrary commands.


3) Protection mechanism failure (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-10086)

CWE-ID: CWE-693 - Protection Mechanism Failure

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass certain security restrictions.

The vulnerability exist due to Beanutils is not using by default the a special BeanIntrospector class in PropertyUtilsBean that was supposed to suppress the ability for an attacker to access the classloader via the class property available on all Java objects. A remote attacker can abuse such application behavior against applications that were developed to rely on this security feature.


4) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-4450)

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

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


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. A remote attacker can pass a specially-crafted sequence of serialized objects to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
