Descriptions

The camel-hessian component in Apache Camel 2.x before 2.19.4 and 2.20.x before 2.20.1 is vulnerable to Java object de-serialisation vulnerability. De-serializing untrusted data can lead to security flaws.

El componente camel-hessian en Apache Camel en versiones 2.x anteriores a la 2.19.4 y las versiones 2.20.x anteriores a la 2.20.1 es vulnerable a una deserialización de objetos Java. La deserialización de datos no fiables puede conducir a fallos de seguridad.

It was found that Apache Camel contains a security vulnerability via camel-hessian component. An attacker can utilize this flaw to deserialize a malicious object on the target machine which could lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE).

Red Hat JBoss Fuse, based on Apache ServiceMix, provides a small-footprint, flexible, open source enterprise service bus and integration platform. Red Hat JBoss A-MQ, based on Apache ActiveMQ, is a standards compliant messaging system that is tailored for use in mission critical applications. This patch is an update to Red Hat JBoss Fuse 6.3 and Red Hat JBoss A-MQ 6.3. It includes bug fixes and enhancements, which are documented in the readme.txt file included with the patch files. Multiple security issues have been addressed.
