Apache CXF < 3.5.8, 3.6.x < 3.6.3, 4.0.x < 4.0.4 SSRF

critical Nessus Plugin ID 192473

Synopsis

Apache CXF is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

A SSRF vulnerability using the Aegis DataBinding in versions of Apache CXF before 4.0.4, 3.6.3 and 3.5.8 allows an attacker to perform SSRF style attacks on webservices that take at least one parameter of any type. Users of other data bindings (including the default databinding) are not impacted.

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

Solution

Update to Apache CXF 3.5.8, 3.6.3, 4.0.4 or later
