Severity: important Affected versions:
- Apache CXF (org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-transports-jms) 4.2.0 before 4.2.3 - Apache CXF (org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-transports-jms) 4.0.0 before 4.1.8 - Apache CXF (org.apache.cxf:cxf-rt-transports-jms) before 3.6.12 Description: Apache CXF's JMS transport deserializes the body of any inbound JMS ObjectMessage using native Java deserialization, with no type restrictions in place. Any attacker able to place a message on the service's JMS destination can submit a malicious serialized object, leading to denial of service or, if a suitable gadget class is on the classpath, remote code execution. The fix disables ObjectMessage deserialization by default, with a configuration switch to re-enable it if needed. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 4.2.3 or 4.1.8 or 3.6.12, which fix this issue.
