CVE-2023-29216

In Apache Linkis <=1.3.1, because the parameters are not effectively filtered, the attacker uses the MySQL data source and malicious parameters to configure a new data source to trigger a deserialization vulnerability, eventually leading to remote code execution. Versions of Apache Linkis <= 1.3.0 will be affected. We recommend users upgrade the version of Linkis to version 1.3.2.

Weakness

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

Affected Software

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.
