Noroxi assessment

Priority: Now (action score 99/100)

  • CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Aug 25, 2022). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Sep 15, 2022.
  • A ready-made attack module is public (Metasploit, Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 99.9% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.9% 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: org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-function-context (Maven) 3.2.3, 3.1.7; openshift-serverless-clients (Red Hat:serverless:1.0::el8) 0:1.0.1-2.el8.

Patch today or shut off access. Upgrade to org.springframework.cloud:spring-cloud-function-context (Maven) 3.2.3, 3.1.7; openshift-serverless-clients (Red Hat:serverless:1.0::el8) 0:1.0.1-2.el8 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · CISA KEV · FIRST EPSS

In Spring Cloud Function versions 3.1.6, 3.2.2 and older unsupported versions, when using routing functionality it is possible for a user to provide a specially crafted SpEL as a routing-expression that may result in remote code execution and access to local resources.
