3) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1415)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data. A remote user can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
4) Incorrect Regular Expression (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31129)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of user-supplied input when parsing overly long strings. A remote attacker can pass a string that contains more that 10k characters and perform regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) attack.
5) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-40152)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input within the Woodstox XML parser. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted input to the application, trigger an out-of-bounds write and crash the application.
