CVE-2024-47552
Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Seata (incubating).
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.25%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in Apache Seata (incubating). This issue affects Apache Seata (incubating): from 2.0.0 before 2.2.0. Severity Justification: The Apache Seata security team assesses the severity of this vulnerability as "Low" due to stringent real-world mitigating factors. First, the vulnerability is strictly isolated to the Raft cluster mode, an optional and non-default feature introduced in v2.0.0, while most users rely on the unaffected traditional architecture. Second, Seata is an internal middleware; communication between TC and RM/TM occurs entirely within trusted internal networks. An attacker would require prior, unauthorized access to the Intranet to exploit this, making external exploitation highly improbable. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.2.0, which fixes the issue.
