Synopsis
========
Apache Commons BeanUtils does not properly suppress the class property,
which could lead to the remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background
==========
Commons-beanutils provides easy-to-use wrappers around Reflection and
Introspection APIs
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-java/commons-beanutils
< 1.9.2 >= 1.9.2
Description
===========
Apache Commons BeanUtils does not suppress the class property, which
allows for the manipulation of the ClassLoader.
Impact
======
Remote attackers could potentially execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the process.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All Commons BeanUtils users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=dev-java/commons-beanutils-1.9.2"
