Oracle NoSQL Database Enterprise Server-Side Request Forgery (October 2019 CPU)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 135204

Language:

Synopsis

A database running on the remote host is affected by a server-side request forgery vulnerability.

Description

The version of Oracle NoSQL Database Enterprise running on the remote host is prior to 19.3.12. It is, therefore, affected by a server-side request forgery vulnerability. The vulnerability exists in the jackson-databind component due to a failure to block the axis2-jaxws class from polymorphic deserialization. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via HTTP, to cause a takeover of Oracle NoSQL Database.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Oracle NoSQL Database Enterprise version 19.3.12 or later.
