Title
Apache Juneau: Unsafe reflection allows attacker-controlled class initialization during parsing
Summary
Improper control of dynamically-loaded code vulnerability in Apache Juneau. When Apache Juneau parses a value into a property of type java.lang.Class (including parameterized forms), the default class swap loaded the named class with initialization enabled, so input naming a class on the application classpath ran that class's static initializer. The impact depends on the classes present in the deployment. This issue affects Apache Juneau: through 9.2.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.2.1, which fixes the issue.

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
