IBM Sterling B2B Integrator Standard EditionĀ 6.0.0.0 through 6.1.2.5 and 6.2.0.0 through 6.2.0.2 allow an attacker on the local network to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the deserialization of untrusted data.

Weakness

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

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Sterling_b2b_integrator Ibm 6.0.0.0 (including) 6.1.2.5 (including)
Sterling_b2b_integrator Ibm 6.2.0.0 (including) 6.2.0.2 (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.
