Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2020-12-18 18:47:24 UTC
FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.10.8 mishandles the interaction between serialization gadgets and typing, related to org.apache.commons.dbcp2.datasources.PerUserPoolDataSource.

Reference:
https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-databind/issues/2986

Comment 1 Chess Hazlett 2020-12-18 20:27:55 UTC
Mitigation:

The following conditions are needed for an exploit, we recommend avoiding all if possible:
* Deserialization from sources you do not control
* `enableDefaultTyping()`
* `@JsonTypeInfo using `id.CLASS` or `id.MINIMAL_CLASS`
* avoid org.apache.commons.dbcp2.datasources.PerUserPoolDataSource and org.apache.commons.dbcp2.datasources.SharedPoolDataSource in the classpath

Comment 10 Mark Cooper 2020-12-21 13:20:33 UTC
Statement:

The following Red Hat products do ship the vulnerable component, but do not enable the unsafe conditions needed to exploit, lowering their vulnerability impact:
* JBoss Data Grid 7
* Business Process Management Suite 6
* Business Rules Management Suite 6
* JBoss Data Virtualization 6
* Red Hat Fuse Service Works 6
* Red Hat OpenStack Platform
* Red Hat OpenShift containers: ose-metering-hadoop, ose-metering-hive, ose-logging-elasticsearch5, ose-logging-elasticsearch6  
These products may update the jackson-databind dependency in a future release.

In Red Hat Openshift 4 there are no plans to maintain the ose-logging-elasticsearch5 container, hence it has been marked wontfix at this time and may be fixed in a future update.

The following Red Hat products ship OpenDaylight, which contains the vulnerable jackson-databind, but do not expose jackson-databind in a way that would make it exploitable
* Red Hat OpenStack Platform 13
As such, Red Hat will not be providing a fix for OpenDaylight at this time.

The following Red Hat products are not affected by this flaw because they use a more recent version of jackson-databind that does not contain the vulnerable code:
* CodeReady Studio 12.16.0
* Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8
* Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
* Red Hat Satellite 6
* Red Hat OpenShift container: ose-metering-presto
