Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Lucene Replicator.

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published Sep 30, 2024 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Dec 12, 2024

Package

maven org.apache.lucene:lucene-replicator (Maven)

Affected versions

>= 4.4.0, < 9.12.0

Patched versions

9.12.0

Description

This issue affects Apache Lucene's replicator module: from 4.4.0 before 9.12.0.
The deprecated org.apache.lucene.replicator.http package is affected.
The org.apache.lucene.replicator.nrt package is not affected.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.12.0, which fixes the issue.

The deserialization can only be triggered if users actively deploy an network-accessible implementation and a corresponding client using a HTTP library that uses the API (e.g., a custom servlet and HTTPClient). Java serialization filters (such as -Djdk.serialFilter='!*' on the commandline) can mitigate the issue on vulnerable versions without impacting functionality.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
