Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: XStream security update

Notes

Topic
An update for the XStream component that fixes one security issue is now available from the Red Hat Customer Portal for Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization 6.0.0. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.
Details
XStream is a simple library to serialize and de-serialize objects to and from XML. It was found that XStream could deserialize arbitrary user-supplied XML content, representing objects of any type. A remote attacker able to pass XML to XStream could use this flaw to perform a variety of attacks, including remote code execution in the context of the server running the XStream application. (CVE-2013-7285) The main distribution of Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization 6.0.0 does not contain the vulnerable XStream library and is not vulnerable to CVE-2013-7285. Only users of Red Hat JBoss Data Virtualization 6.0.0 who installed an optional S-RAMP distribution as provided from the Red Hat Customer Portal are advised to apply this update.
