Summary

Multiple vulnerabilities in Jackson-databind were addressed by IBM InfoSphere
Information Server.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2018-5968
DESCRIPTION: FasterXML jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by deserialization flaws. By using
two different gadgets that bypass a blacklist, an attacker could exploit this
vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base Score: 7.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
138088 for the current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)

CVEID: CVE-2017-17485
DESCRIPTION: Jackson-databind could allow a remote attacker to execute
arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw in the default-typing feature.
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the
system.
CVSS Base Score: 9.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/
