Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-2486-01

Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-2486-01
Posted Aug 17, 2017
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-2486-01 - Groovy is an agile and dynamic language for the Java Virtual Machine, built upon Java with features inspired by languages like Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk. It seamlessly integrates with all existing Java objects and libraries and compiles straight to Java bytecode so you can use it anywhere you can use Java. Security Fix: It was found that a flaw in Apache groovy library allows remote code execution wherever deserialization occurs in the application. It is possible for an attacker to craft a special serialized object that will execute code directly when deserialized. All applications which rely on serialization and do not isolate the code which deserializes objects are subject to this vulnerability.
