Security Bulletin: Multiple vulnerabilities in jackson-databind affect IBM Platform Symphony and IBM Spectrum Symphony

Description

## Summary Multiple vulnerabilities exist in the Jackson databind, core, and annotations version used by IBM Spectrum Symphony 7.2.1, 7.2.0.2, and 7.1.2, and IBM Platform Symphony 7.1.1 and 7.1 Fix Pack 1. Interim fixes that provide instructions on upgrading Jackson databind, core, and annotations to version 2.9.8 (which resolves these vulnerabilities) are available on IBM Fix Central. ## Vulnerability Details **CVEID:** [CVE-2018-14721](<https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2018-14721>) **DESCRIPTION:** FasterXML jackson-databind is vulnerable to server-side request forgery, caused by the failure to block the axis2-jaxws class from polymorphic deserialization. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive data. CVSS Base Score: 5.3 CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/155136> for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) **CVEID:** [CVE-2018-14720](<https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2018-14720>) **DESCRIPTION:** FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an XML external entity (XXE) error when processing XML data by JDK classes. By sending a specially-crafted XML data. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive information. CVSS Base Score: 5.3 CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/155137> for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) **CVEID:** [CVE-2018-14718](<https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2018-14718>) **DESCRIPTION:** FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the failure to block the slf4j-ext class from polymorphic deserialization. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. CVSS Base Score: 9.8 CVSS Temporal Score: See <https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/155139> for the current score CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) **CVEID:** [CVE-2018-14719](<https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2018-14719>) **DESCRIPTION:** FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the failure to block the blaze-ds-opt and blaze-ds-core classes from polymorphic deserialization. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
