A vulnerability was found in spider-flow up to 0.5.0. It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is the function DriverManager.getConnection of the file src/main/java/org/spiderflow/controller/DataSourceController.java of the component API. The manipulation leads to deserialization. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier VDB-239857 was assigned to this vulnerability.

Weakness

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

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Spider-flow Ssssssss * 0.5.0 (including)

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.
