A flaw was discovered in jackson-databind in versions before 2.9.10, 2.8.11.5 and 2.6.7.3, where it would permit polymorphic deserialization
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Plan (action score 41/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 5.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 92.7% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: jackson-databind (Debian:12) 2.10.0-1; com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind (Maven) 2.8.11.5, 2.9.10, 2.6.7.3; eap7-apache-cxf (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:3.2.11-1.redhat_00001.1.el6eap.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 7.5, NVD 9.8.
- Mentioned 4 times in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to jackson-databind (Debian:12) 2.10.0-1; com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind (Maven) 2.8.11.5, 2.9.10, 2.6.7.3; eap7-apache-cxf (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform:7.2::el6) 0:3.2.11-1.redhat_00001.1.el6eap or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
A flaw was discovered in jackson-databind in versions before 2.9.10, 2.8.11.5 and 2.6.7.3, where it would permit polymorphic deserialization of a malicious object using commons-configuration 1 and 2 JNDI classes. An attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code.
