Security Bulletin
Summary
Muiltiple vulnerabilities in Jackson databind that is used by IBM InfoSphere Information Server were addressed.
Vulnerability Details
DESCRIPTION: FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the mishandling of interaction between serialization gadgets and typing in com.ibatis.sqlmap.engine.transaction.jta.JtaTransactionConfig (aka ibatis-sqlmap). By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/177103 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2020-9546
DESCRIPTION: FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the mishandling of interaction between serialization gadgets and typing in org.apache.hadoop.shaded.com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariConfig (aka shaded hikari-config). By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.

CVEID: CVE-2017-15095
DESCRIPTION: Jackson Library could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a deserialization flaw in the readValue() method of the ObjectMapper. By sending specially crafted data, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/135123 for the current score.

CVEID: CVE-2019-10202
DESCRIPTION: Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper deserialization in Codehaus. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 8.1

CVEID: CVE-2017-17485
DESCRIPTION: Jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw in the default-typing feature. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/137340 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2018-7489
DESCRIPTION: FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a deserialization flaw in the readValue method of the ObjectMapper. By sending specially crafted JSON input, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/139549 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2018-5968
DESCRIPTION: FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by deserialization flaws. By using two different gadgets that bypass a blocklist, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base score: 7.3
