CWE-915  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

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

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes via the operationName and operationNamespace headers, which are not properly filtered by the HTTP header filter. An attacker can cause the backend SOAP service to execute unintended operations by supplying crafted HTTP headers. This may allow replacement of intended operations with potentially destructive ones, such as changing a read operation to a write or delete, without requiring authentication if the bridging consumer is unauthenticated.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by stripping the operationName and operationNamespace headers from any untrusted ingress before the cxf: producer and setting the operation from a trusted source in the route.
