Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Unsafe reflection (CVE-ID: CVE-2014-0114)

CWE-ID: CWE-470 - Use of Externally-Controlled Input to Select Classes or Code ('Unsafe Reflection')

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


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

The vulnerability exists due to Apache Commons BeanUtils does not suppress the class property. A remote unauthenticated attacker can manipulate the ClassLoader and execute arbitrary code via the class parameter


2) 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.
