GLSA-202210-21 : FasterXML jackson-databind: Multiple vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 166731

Description

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202210-21 (FasterXML jackson-databind: Multiple vulnerabilities)

- In FasterXML jackson-databind before 2.14.0-rc1, resource exhaustion can occur because of a lack of a check in primitive value deserializers to avoid deep wrapper array nesting, when the UNWRAP_SINGLE_VALUE_ARRAYS feature is enabled. Additional fix version in 2.13.4.1 and 2.12.17.1 (CVE-2022-42003)

- In FasterXML jackson-databind before 2.13.4, resource exhaustion can occur because of a lack of a check in BeanDeserializer._deserializeFromArray to prevent use of deeply nested arrays. An application is vulnerable only with certain customized choices for deserialization. (CVE-2022-42004)

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

Solution

All FasterXML jackson-databind users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose >=dev-java/jackson-databind-2.13.4.1
