CVE-2026-47065
Description
A flaw was found in mina. This vulnerability involves two issues related to how the software handles serialized objects, which are objects converted into a format for storage or transmission. Firstly, a bypass in the resolveProxyClass method allows for the deserialization of java.lang.reflect.Proxy objects, which are special objects used to control access to other objects. This bypass can circumvent security filters designed to prevent malicious object deserialization. Secondly, deserializing a stream that names an allow-listed class can trigger its static initializer, a block of code that runs automatically when a class is loaded. A remote attacker could exploit these flaws to execute arbitrary code, gaining unauthorized control over the system.
Statement
Red Hat products are affected by this vulnerability. However, the vulnerable code cannot be reached and therefore are not vulnerable. Due to this reason, this flaw has been rated with a low severity.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Integrity
Technical Impact: Modify Application Data; Unexpected State
Attackers can modify unexpected objects or data that was assumed to be safe from modification. Deserialized data or code could be modified without using the provided accessor functions, or unexpected functions could be invoked.
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Resource Consumption (CPU)
If a function is making an assumption on when to terminate, based on a sentry in a string, it could easily never terminate.
Other
Technical Impact: Varies by Context
The consequences can vary widely, because it depends on which objects or methods are being deserialized, and how they are used. Making an assumption that the code in the deserialized object is valid is dangerous and can enable exploitation. One example is attackers using gadget chains to perform unauthorized actions, such as generating a shell.
