SCA: security update for org.apache.cxf:cxf-core (GHSA-36wv-v2qp-v4g4)
medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 428419
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Apache CXF stores large stream based messages as temporary files on the local filesystem. A bug was
introduced which means that the entire temporary file is read into memory and then logged. An attacker
might be able to exploit this to cause a denial of service attack by causing an out of memory exception.
In addition, it is possible to configure CXF to encrypt temporary files to prevent sensitive credentials
from being cached unencrypted on the local filesystem, however this bug means that the cached files are
written out to logs unencrypted. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 3.5.11, 3.6.6, 4.0.7 or
4.1.1, which fixes this issue. (CVE-2025-48795)
