How to fix?

Upgrade org.apache.inlong:manager-common to version 1.7.0 or higher.

Overview

org.apache.inlong:manager-common is an one-stop integration framework for massive data

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Deserialization of Untrusted Data that allows attackers to bypass autoDeserialize option filtering by including whitespace in JDBC URLs.

Note: The maintainers have rated this vulnerability as having a moderate impact at the time of discovery.

Details

Serialization is a process of converting an object into a sequence of bytes which can be persisted to a disk or database or can be sent through streams. The reverse process of creating object from sequence of bytes is called deserialization. Serialization is commonly used for communication (sharing objects between multiple hosts) and persistence (store the object state in a file or a database). It is an integral part of popular protocols like Remote Method Invocation (RMI), Java Management Extension (JMX), Java Messaging System (JMS), Action Message Format (AMF), Java Server Faces (JSF) ViewState, etc.

Deserialization of untrusted data (CWE-502) is when the application deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently verifying that the resulting data will be valid, thus allowing the attacker to control the state or the flow of the execution.
