Frequently Asked Questions

1

What does an attacker need to exploit this issue?

An attacker needs to send a crafted CBOR payload containing an unbounded run of CBOR tags to a vulnerable CBOR parser. The supplied vector indicates network exploitation requires no privileges or user interaction.

2

Which affected deployments are exposed?

Deployments of the listed cleanstart/wso2am, cleanstart/rundeck, cleanstart/keycloak, or cleanstart/solr packages are relevant where they process attacker-controlled CBOR data through jackson-dataformats-binary's CBOR module.

3

What is the expected impact of exploitation?

The crafted tag sequence causes quadratic-time TagList growth, which can exhaust CPU and garbage-collection resources. This can result in a denial of service; no confidentiality or integrity impact is identified in the provided vector.
