Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in FasterXML jackson-databind up to 2.9.6 (Programming Language Software) and classified as critical. This issue affects the function blaze-ds-opt/blaze-ds-core of the component Deserialization. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a deserialization vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-502. The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently verifying that the resulting data will be valid. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

FasterXML jackson-databind 2.x before 2.9.7 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by leveraging failure to block the blaze-ds-opt and blaze-ds-core classes from polymorphic deserialization.
