RHSA-2015:2523 - Security Advisory
Synopsis
Important: rh-java-common-apache-commons-collections security update
Type/Severity
Security Advisory: Important
Topic
Updated rh-java-common-apache-commons-collections packages which fix one
security issue are now available for Red Hat Software Collections 2.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security
impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the
References section.
Description
The Apache Commons Collections library provides new interfaces,
implementations, and utilities to extend the features of the Java
Collections Framework.
It was found that the Apache commons-collections library permitted code
execution when deserializing objects involving a specially constructed
chain of classes. A remote attacker could use this flaw to execute
arbitrary code with the permissions of the application using the
commons-collections library. (CVE-2015-7501)
With this update, deserialization of certain classes in the
commons-collections library is no longer allowed. Applications that require
those classes to be deserialized can use the system property
"org.apache.commons.collections.enableUnsafeSerialization" to re-enable
their deserialization.
Further information about this security flaw may be found at:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2045023
All users of rh-java-common-apache-commons-collections are advised to
upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to
correct this issue. All running applications using the commons-collections
library must be restarted for the update to take effect.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
