Apache Camel 4.8.0 < 4.8.6 / 4.10.0 < 4.10.3 – Camel-Undertow Bypass/Injection Vulnerability (CVE-2025-30177)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 265334

Language:

Synopsis

A Camel message header injection vulnerability exists in the Camel-Undertow component of Apache Camel.

Description

This issue affects Apache Camel: from 4.10.0 before 4.10.3, from 4.8.0 before 4.8.6. It is, therefore, affected by a message header injection vulnerability:

- Bypass/Injection vulnerability in Apache Camel components under particular conditions. In particular the custom header filter strategy used by the component only filter the 'out' direction, while it doesn't filter the 'in' direction.Users are recommended to upgrade to ersion 4.10.3 for 4.10.x LTS and 4.8.6 for 4.8.x LTS. This allows an attacker to include Camel specific headers that for some Camel components can alter the behaviour such as the camel-bean component, or the camel-exec component.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache Camel version 4.8.6 or 4.10.3 or later.
