An administrative application user of or application user with write access to Aruba Airwave VisualRF is able to obtain code execution on the AMP platform. This is possible due to the ability to overwrite a file on disk which is subsequently deserialized by the Java application component.

Weakness

The product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Airwave Arubanetworks 8.0.0 (including) 8.2.10.1 (excluding)

Potential Mitigations

  • Make fields transient to protect them from deserialization.
  • An attempt to serialize and then deserialize a class containing transient fields will result in NULLs where the transient data should be. This is an excellent way to prevent time, environment-based, or sensitive variables from being carried over and used improperly.
