Summary: CVE-2022-36944 - Scala deserialization bug
Key: KAFKA-14267
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14267
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Zach Fry
[https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-36944]
{quote}Scala 2.13.x before 2.13.9 has a Java deserialization chain in its JAR
file. On its own, it cannot be exploited. There is only a risk in conjunction
with LazyList object deserialization within an application. In such situations,
it allows attackers to erase contents of arbitrary files, make network
connections, or possibly run arbitrary code (specifically, Function0 functions)
via a gadget chain.

It looks like the default scala version used to build kafka on trunk is
[https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/gradle/dependencies.gradle#L31.]
I'm not super sure what the kafka EOL policy is, but if we could get this
backported to the 2.8 branch as well that'd be fantastic.
