Exploitation Probability (EPSS)

Very high risk
8.94%

95th percentile - higher than 95% of all known CVEs

Summary

A vulnerability in FasterXML jackson-databind before 2.7.9.4, 2.8.11.2 and 2.9.6 occurs when Default Typing is enabled, the Oracle JDBC jar is on the classpath, and an attacker can provide an LDAP service. This allows the service to execute a malicious payload.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability can lead to remote code execution on an application server processing untrusted JSON data. The risk is especially high in applications using Oracle JDBC with Default Typing enabled.

Recommendation

Upgrade jackson-databind to 2.7.9.4, 2.8.11.2 or 2.9.6 (or later). If possible, disable Default Typing or restrict allowed classes, and remove the Oracle JDBC jar from the classpath if it is not required.
