Upgrade org.apache.camel:camel-salesforce to version 4.14.8, 4.18.3, 4.21.0 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ('Injection') via the improper handling of HTTP headers in the process. An attacker can manipulate internal Salesforce operation parameters, such as SOQL queries, SOSL searches, SObject names and IDs, or Apex REST endpoints, by supplying specially crafted HTTP headers. This allows the attacker to override intended route behavior and perform unauthorized actions with the full permissions of the connected Salesforce integration user, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or destructive operations. This is only exploitable if an HTTP consumer is bridged directly to a Salesforce producer and the consumer is unauthenticated.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by stripping the Salesforce control headers from any untrusted ingress before the Salesforce producer, for example by using removeHeaders('sObject*') and removeHeaders('apex*') at the start of the route, and ensuring that query, SObject, and Apex parameters are set from a trusted source.
