Weakness: CWE-502

Description

Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Jackrabbit Core and Apache Jackrabbit JCR Commons. This issue affects Apache Jackrabbit Core: from 1.0.0 through 2.22.1; Apache Jackrabbit JCR Commons: from 1.0.0 through 2.22.1. Deployments that accept JNDI URIs for JCR lookup from untrusted users allows them to inject malicious JNDI references, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution through deserialization of untrusted data. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.22.2. JCR lookup through JNDI has been disabled by default in 2.22.2. Users of this feature need to enable it explicitly and are adviced to review their use of JNDI URI for JCR lookup.

Affected products

Apache Software Foundation Apache Jackrabbit: from 1.0.0 before 2.22.2 — fixed in 2.22.2

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache Jackrabbit 2.22.2. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
