HighCVSS 8.1
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Exploitation Probability (EPSS)

Very high risk
5.78%

93th percentile - higher than 93% of all known CVEs

Summary

FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.10.4 mishandles the interaction between serialization gadgets and typing, related to org.apache.commons.jelly.impl.Embedded (aka commons-jelly). This may allow an attacker to perform dangerous operations during deserialization.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability can lead to remote code execution (RCE) in applications using jackson-databind to deserialize untrusted data. High risk for systems processing data from external sources.

Recommendation

Update jackson-databind to version 2.9.10.4 or later. If update is not possible, enable type restriction mechanisms (denyTypes) and avoid deserializing untrusted data.
