XStream is an open source java library to serialize objects to XML and back again. Versions prior to 1.4.19 may allow a remote attacker to allocate 100% CPU time on the target system depending on CPU type or parallel execution of such a payload resulting in a denial of service only by manipulating the processed input stream. XStream 1.4.19 monitors and accumulates the time it takes to add elements to collections and throws an exception if a set threshold is exceeded. Users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible. Users unable to upgrade may set the NOREFERENCE mode to prevent recursion. See GHSA-rmr5-cpv2-vgjf for further details on a workaround if an upgrade is not possible.
A flaw was found in xstream, a simple library used to serialize objects to XML and back again. This flaw allows a remote attacker to load and execute arbitrary code from a remote host by manipulating the processed input stream.

A flaw was found in xstream, a simple library used to serialize objects to XML and back again. This flaw allows a remote attacker to request data from internal resources that are not publicly available by manipulating the processed input stream with Java runtime versions 14 to 8. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.

The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability.
Impact The vulnerability may allow a remote attacker has sufficient rights to execute commands of the host only by manipulating the processed input stream. No user is affected, who followed the recommendation to setup XStream's security framework with a whitelist limited to the minimal required types.
Patches If you rely on XStream's default blacklist of the Security Framework, you will have to use at least version 1.4.17.
