CVE-2022-46364: Apache CXF SSRF Vulnerability
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Plan (action score 40/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 2.3% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 83.5% 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.apache.cxf:cxf-core (Maven) 3.5.5, 3.4.10; eap7-apache-cxf (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform_eus:7.1::el7) 0:3.1.16-3.SP1_redhat_00001.1.ep7.el7; eap7-apache-cxf-rt (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform_eus:7.1::el7) 0:3.1.16-3.SP1_redhat_00001.1.ep7.el7.
Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to org.apache.cxf:cxf-core (Maven) 3.5.5, 3.4.10; eap7-apache-cxf (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform_eus:7.1::el7) 0:3.1.16-3.SP1_redhat_00001.1.ep7.el7; eap7-apache-cxf-rt (Red Hat:jboss_enterprise_application_platform_eus:7.1::el7) 0:3.1.16-3.SP1_redhat_00001.1.ep7.el7 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
A SSRF vulnerability in parsing the href attribute of XOP:Include in MTOM requests in versions of Apache CXF before 3.5.5 and 3.4.10 allows an attacker to perform SSRF style attacks on webservices that take at least one parameter of any type.

Noroxi analysis
What does it mean in your environment?
The assessment above is generated automatically from the record's data; it doesn't know your environment. Our team verifies on your systems whether this vulnerability is actually exploitable and which mitigation is enough.
We use this product, ask for helpAffected systems
Is your version affected?
Pick the product and type the version you run. It's compared with this record's version ranges in your browser; the version isn't sent anywhere.
| Vendor | Product | CPE |

| apache | cxf | cpe:2.3:a:apache:cxf |
Affected versions
NVD version ranges (for catalog products). Add the product to your stack with a version and matching uses these.
- apache cxfbefore 3.4.10
- apache cxf3.5.0 and later · before 3.5.5

Variant candidates
Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
