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

  - A Polymorphic Typing issue was discovered in FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.9.2. This occurs
    when Default Typing is enabled (either globally or for a specific property) for an externally exposed JSON
    endpoint and the service has the logback jar in the classpath. (CVE-2019-14439)

It was discovered that jackson-databind, a Java library used to parse JSON and other data formats, did not properly validate user input before attempting deserialization. This allowed an attacker providing maliciously crafted input to perform code execution, or read arbitrary files on the server.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4813-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Jackson Databind incorrectly handled deserialization. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2018-11307, CVE-2019-12086, CVE-2019-12814)

    It was discovered that Jackson Databind incorrectly handled deserialization. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to execute arbitrary code or other unspecified impact. (CVE-2018-12022, CVE-2018-12023,     CVE-2018-14718, CVE-2018-14719, CVE-2018-19360, CVE-2018-19361, CVE-2018-19362, CVE-2019-12384,     CVE-2019-14379, CVE-2019-14439, CVE-2019-14540, CVE-2019-16335, CVE-2019-16942, CVE-2019-16943,     CVE-2019-17267, CVE-2019-17531, CVE-2019-20330, CVE-2020-10672, CVE-2020-10673, CVE-2020-10968,     CVE-2020-10969, CVE-2020-11111, CVE-2020-11112, CVE-2020-11113, CVE-2020-11619, CVE-2020-11620,     CVE-2020-14060, CVE-2020-14061, CVE-2020-14062, CVE-2020-14195, CVE-2020-8840, CVE-2020-9546,     CVE-2020-9547, CVE-2020-9548)

    It was discovered that Jackson Databind incorrectly handled deserialization. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to execute XML entity (XXE) attacks. (CVE-2018-14720)

    It was discovered that Jackson Databind incorrectly handled deserialization. An attacker could possibly     use this issue to execute server-side request forgery (SSRF). (CVE-2018-14721)

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

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - A Polymorphic Typing issue was discovered in FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.9.2. This occurs     when Default Typing is enabled (either globally or for a specific property) for an externally exposed JSON     endpoint and the service has the logback jar in the classpath. (CVE-2019-14439)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

- Update jackson-databind to version 2.9.9.3.

  - Update jackson-core to version 2.9.9.

  - Update jackson-annotations to version 2.9.9.

  - Update jackson-bom to version 2.9.9.

Resolves CVE-2019-12086, CVE-2019-12384, CVE-2019-12814, CVE-2019-14379, and CVE-14439.

According to its self-reported version number, the Oracle Primavera Unifier installation running on the remote web server is 16.1.x or 16.2.x prior to 16.2.15.10, or 17.7.x through 17.12.x prior to 17.12.11.1, or 18.8.x prior to 18.8.13.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

    - An unspecified flaw exists in how 'default typing' is handled when 'ehcache' is used in the       jackson-databind component of Primavera Unifier. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this       via the network over HTTP to cause remote code execution. (CVE-2019-14379)

    - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the jackson-databind component of Primavera Unifier.
      An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this via an externally exposed JSON endpoint if the       service has the mysql-connector-java jar in the classpath, and the attacker can host a crafted MySQL       server accessible by the victim. An attacker can send a crafted JSON message to read arbitrary local       files on the server. (CVE-2019-12086)

    - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the jackson-databind component of Primavera Unifier.
      An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this via an externally exposed JSON endpoint if the       service has the logback jar in the classpath, which can allow information disclosure. (CVE-2019-14439)

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

Deserialization flaws were discovered in jackson-databind relating to EHCache and logback/jndi, which could allow an unauthenticated user to perform remote code execution. The issue was resolved by extending the blacklist and blocking more classes from polymorphic deserialization.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.2-2+deb8u8.

We recommend that you upgrade your jackson-databind packages.
