Description Michael Kaplan 2020-08-26 13:25:39 UTC
FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.10.6 mishandles the interaction between serialization gadgets and typing, related to br.com.anteros.dbcp.AnterosDBCPDataSource (aka Anteros-DBCP).

Comment 3 Ted Jongseok Won 2020-08-27 00:35:00 UTC
This vulnerability is out of security support scope for the following products:
 * Red Hat Enterprise Application Platform 6
 * Red Hat JBoss BPMS 6
 * Red Hat JBoss BRMS 6
 * Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization 6
 * Red Hat Data Grid 6
 * Red Hat JBoss Fuse 6
 * Red Hat JBoss AMQ 6

Please refer to https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/jboss_notes for more details.

Comment 34 Ted Jongseok Won 2020-10-14 05:40:36 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 br.com.anteros.dbcp in the classpath

Comment 35 Ted Jongseok Won 2020-10-14 19:47:42 UTC
Statement:

The Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7 does ship the vulnerable component but has a mandatory whitelist which blocks all wicked serializing classes and does not enable the unsafe conditions needed to exploit.

While OpenShift Container Platform's elasticsearch plugins do ship the vulnerable component, it doesn't do any of the unsafe things described in https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3279231. We may update the jackson-databind dependency in a future release.

The PKI module as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and Red Hat Satellite 6 does not enable polymorphic deserialization which is a required configuration for the vulnerability to be used, lowering the impact of the vulnerability for the Product. We may update the jackson-databind dependency in a future release.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform ships OpenDaylight, which contains the vulnerable jackson-databind. However, OpenDaylight does not expose jackson-databind in a way that would make it vulnerable, lowering the impact of the vulnerability for OpenDaylight. As such, Red Hat will not be providing a fix for OpenDaylight at this time.
