AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an insecure deserialization condition in JFrog Artifactory, triggered by an attacker who can write to stored session data. By injecting malicious serialized objects the attacker may execute arbitrary code or modify Artifactory data. The weakness is classified as CWE-502, a classic insecure deserialization flaw that can lead to remote code execution, information disclosure or denial of service.

Affected Systems

JFrog Artifactory is the affected product. The CNA identifier jfrog:artifactory covers all Artifactory releases, but no specific version range is provided. Therefore any Artifactory instance that permits a party to write session data may be impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.6 indicates a medium severity. No EPSS score is available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting it is not currently a widely deployed exploit. The attack vector likely requires write access to session data, implying that an attacker must have some level of privileged or trusted access to the Artifactory environment. If exploited, the attacker could run code with the Artifactory process privileges or tamper with stored artifacts.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update to the latest JFrog Artifactory release that contains the insecure deserialization fix.
  • Restrict write permissions on the session data store so that only trusted users or system components can modify session data.
  • Implement monitoring or a WAF rule to detect and block suspicious serialized payloads in session data, especially if a patch cannot be applied immediately.
