CVE-2016-6809  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-502  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:10 rh-eclipse46-tika-javadoc.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-eclipse46-tika-javadoc package and not the rh-eclipse46-tika-javadoc package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Apache Tika before 1.14 allows Java code execution for serialized objects embedded in MATLAB files. The issue exists because Tika invokes JMatIO to do native deserialization.
