Advisory Release Date: 2023-01-18 00:17 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2023-01-20 23:03 Pacific
Severity:
Important
References:
CVE-2022-42920
Issue Overview:
Apache Commons BCEL has a number of APIs that would normally only allow changing specific class characteristics. However, due to an out-of-bounds writing issue, these APIs can be used to produce arbitrary bytecode. This could be abused in applications that pass attacker-controllable data to those APIs, giving the attacker more control over the resulting bytecode than otherwise expected. Update to Apache Commons BCEL 6.6.0. (CVE-2022-42920)
Affected Packages:
bcel
Issue Correction:
Run yum update bcel to update your system.
