XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again. This vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to terminate the application with a stack overflow error resulting in a denial of service only by manipulating the processed input stream when XStream is configured to use the BinaryStreamDriver. XStream 1.4.21 has been patched to detect the manipulation in the binary input stream causing the the stack overflow and raises an InputManipulationException instead. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade may catch the StackOverflowError in the client code calling XStream if XStream is configured to use the BinaryStreamDriver.

The 12.2.1.4.0 versions of WebCenter Portal installed on the remote host are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the April 2025 CPU advisory.

  - Vulnerability in the Oracle WebCenter Portal product of Oracle Fusion Middleware (component: Discussion     Forums (XStream)). The supported version that is affected is 12.2.1.4.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability     allows unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise Oracle WebCenter     Portal. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or     frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of Oracle WebCenter Portal. (CVE-2024-47072)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again. This vulnerability may allow a     remote attacker to terminate the application with a stack overflow error resulting in a denial of service     only by manipulating the processed input stream when XStream is configured to use the BinaryStreamDriver.
    XStream 1.4.21 has been patched to detect the manipulation in the binary input stream causing the the     stack overflow and raises an InputManipulationException instead. Users are advised to upgrade. Users     unable to upgrade may catch the StackOverflowError in the client code calling XStream if XStream is     configured to use the BinaryStreamDriver. (CVE-2024-47072)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The version of xstream installed on the remote host is prior to 1.3.1-16. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2-2024-2707 advisory.

    XStream is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack due to stack overflow from a manipulated binary input     stream. XStream provides a BinaryStreamDriver with an own optimized serialization format. The format uses     ids for string values as deduplication. The mapping for these ids are created on-the-fly at marshalling     time. At unmarshalling time the reader's implementation simply used a simple one-time recursion after     reading a mapping token to process the next normal token of the data stream. However, an endless recursion     could be triggered with manipulated input data resulting in a stack overflow causing a denial of service.

    XStream is a simple java library to serialize objects to XML     and back again. Two vulnerabilities were fixed:

    CVE-2021-43859:

      XStream can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by injecting highly       recursive collections or maps

    CVE-2024-47072

      XStream was vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack due       to stack overflow from a manipulated binary input stream

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     1.4.15-3+deb11u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libxstream-java packages.
