Descriptions

An untrusted deserialization was found in the org.apache.xmlrpc.parser.XmlRpcResponseParser:addResult method of Apache XML-RPC (aka ws-xmlrpc) library. A malicious XML-RPC server could target a XML-RPC client causing it to execute arbitrary code. Apache XML-RPC is no longer maintained and this issue will not be fixed.

Se detectó una deserialización no confiable en el método org.apache.xmlrpc.parser.XmlRpcResponseParser:addResult de la biblioteca Apache XML-RPC (también se conoce como ws-xmlrpc). Un servidor XML-RPC malicioso podría apuntar a un cliente XML-RPC causando que ejecute código arbitrario. Apache XML-RPC ya no se mantiene y este problema no será solucionado.

A flaw was discovered where the XMLRPC client implementation in Apache XMLRPC, performed deserialization of the server-side exception serialized in the faultCause attribute of XMLRPC error response messages. A malicious or compromised XMLRPC server could possibly use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of an application using the Apache XMLRPC client library.
