Description
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 passed in JSON format. A remote attacker who is able intercept traffic between a replication client and server or control the target replication node URL, can provide a specially-crafted JSON response that is deserialized as an attacker-provided exception type and execute arbitrary code on the system.
