Severity CVSS v4.0:
Pending analysis
Type:
CWE-502
Deserialization of Untrusted Dat
Publication date:
23/09/2022
Last modified:

Description
Scala 2.13.x before 2.13.9 has a Java deserialization chain in its JAR file. On its own, it cannot be exploited. There is only a risk in conjunction with Java object deserialization within an application. In such situations, it allows attackers to erase contents of arbitrary files, make network connections, or possibly run arbitrary code (specifically, Function0 functions) via a gadget chain.
