SCA: security update for org.apache.seata:seata-config-core (GHSA-m964-fjrh-xxq2)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 437142

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Seata (incubating). This security vulnerability
is the same as CVE-2024-47552, but the version range described in the CVE-2024-47552 definition is too
narrow. This issue affects Apache Seata (incubating): from 2.0.0 before 2.3.0. Severity Justification: The
Apache Seata security team assesses the severity of this vulnerability as "Low" due to stringent real-
world mitigating factors. First, the vulnerability is strictly isolated to the Raft cluster mode, an
optional and non-default feature introduced in v2.0.0, while most users rely on the unaffected traditional
architecture. Second, Seata is an internal middleware; communication between TC and RM/TM occurs entirely
within trusted internal networks. An attacker would require prior, unauthorized access to the Intranet to
exploit this, making external exploitation highly improbable. Users are recommended to upgrade to version
2.3.0, which fixes the issue. (CVE-2025-32897)

Solution

Update the org.apache.seata:seata-config-core library and its related packages to version 2.3.0 or later.
