2. Description:
Red Hat JBoss Data Grid is a distributed in-memory data grid, based on
Infinispan.
This release of Red Hat JBoss Data Grid 7.1.2 serves as a replacement for
Red Hat JBoss Data Grid 7.1.1, and includes bug fixes and enhancements,
which are documented in the Release Notes document linked to in the
References.
Security Fix(es):
* A deserialization flaw was discovered in the jackson-databind which could
allow an unauthenticated user to perform code execution by sending the
maliciously crafted input to the readValue method of the ObjectMapper.
(CVE-2017-7525)
* It was found that the Hotrod client in Infinispan would unsafely read
deserialized data on information from the cache. An authenticated attacker
could inject a malicious object into the data cache and attain
deserialization on the client, and possibly conduct further attacks.
(CVE-2017-15089)
* A vulnerability was found in Jasypt that would allow an attacker to
perform a timing attack on password hash comparison. (CVE-2014-9970)
Red Hat would like to thank Liao Xinxi (NSFOCUS) for reporting
