GHSA-v92f-jx6p-73rx
Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in jai-ext
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maven | it.geosolutions.jaiext.jiffle:jt-jiffle | < 1.1.22 | 1.1.22 |
| Maven | it.geosolutions.jaiext.jiffle:jt-jiffle-language | < 1.1.22 | 1.1.22 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
Programs using jt-jiffle, and allowing Jiffle script to be provided via network request, are susceptible to a Remote Code Execution as the Jiffle script is compiled into Java code via Janino, and executed. In particular, this affects the downstream GeoServer project.
### Patches
Version 1.2.22 will contain a patch that disables the ability to inject malicious code into the resulting script.
### Workarounds
Negate the ability to compile Jiffle scripts from the final application, by removing janino-x.y.z.jar from the classpath.
### References
None.
