Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Apache Seata up to 2.1.x and classified as problematic. This issue affects an unknown code. 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. The impact remains unknown. The summary by CVE is:

Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Seata (incubating). This issue affects Apache Seata (incubating): from 2.0.0 before 2.2.0. Severity Justification: The Apache Seata security team assesses the severity of this vulnerability as "Low" due to stringent real-world mitigating factors. First, the vulnerability is strictly isolated to the Raft cluster mode, an optional and non-default feature introduced in v2.0.0, while most users rely on the unaffected traditional architecture. Second, Seata is an internal middleware; communication between TC and RM/TM occurs entirely within trusted internal networks. An attacker would require prior, unauthorized access to the Intranet to exploit this, making external exploitation highly improbable. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.2.0, which fixes the issue.

The advisory is shared at lists.apache.org. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2024-47552 since 09/26/2024. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. The price for an exploit might be around USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 03/30/2026).

Upgrading to version 2.2.0 eliminates this vulnerability.
