org.apache.tika:tika-parsers
Affected versions of the package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution. Apache Tika wraps the jmatio parser to handle MATLAB files. The parser uses native deserialization on serialized Java objects embedded in MATLAB files. A malicious user could inject arbitrary code into a MATLAB file that would be executed when the object is deserialized.
