Summary

This change adds a Github Workflow to publish the artifact after a release

Submitter's Pledge

Reviewers, I have verified the following to the best of my knowledge:

  • I have added unit test cases for the changes where applicable.
  • I have updated CHANGELOG.md with the new target version (or with the Unreleased tag) and updated the version comparison url in the file.
  • I have updated documentation in README.md at the repo root and all of the applicable README.md files under docs/** along with necessary version change for code samples in those docs where applicable.
  • I have read and fully understand the process for submitting a pull request to the codebase.

I think we also need to do a CHANGELOG update 👍 Thoughts?

Keep me honest here but shouldn't the release a package only happen when a GitHub Release/Pre-Release has been made? Or is this process going to be creating a GitHub Release which is therefore going to go and deploy our DSL to GitHub Packages? 🤔 I would have thought I would have seen event type release/pre-release instead of on merge to develop, master, etc. (IMO). Whats' your thoughts?

I would envision something like every time we merge into master it goes and automatically makes a GitHub Release which then triggered another workflow which actually handles the release of the package to GitHub Packages, if that makes sense?

@NickLiffen - There are two package deployments here. One is a SNAPSHOT build after a merge to master. That is a transient build that gives us the ability to make builds of the Lilly DSL before we make a full-blown release. The second deployment is done after creating a release from within Github. The deployment uses the Github release version as the artifact version. I didn't want to do an automatic release after merging to master because I want to maintain control our version numbering. If we want to do a hotfix, we can check out a certain release tag, make a fix, and release from the fix branch with a patch version. Let me know what you think.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data

high severity



Detailed paths


Overview

com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind is a library which contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Deserialization of Untrusted Data. When Default Typing is enabled for an externally exposed JSON endpoint, the service has the mysql-connector-java jar in the classpath. An attacker can host a crafted MySQL server reachable by the victim and send a crafted JSON message that allows them to read arbitrary local files on the server. This occurs due to missing com.mysql.cj.jdbc.admin.MiniAdmin validation.

Details

Serialization is a process of converting an object into a sequence of bytes which can be persisted to a disk or database or can be sent through streams. The reverse process of creating object from sequence of bytes is called deserialization. Serialization is commonly used for communication (sharing objects between multiple hosts) and persistence (store the object state in a file or a database). It is an integral part of popular protocols like Remote Method Invocation (RMI), Java Management Extension (JMX), Java Messaging System (JMS), Action Message Format (AMF), Java Server Faces (JSF) ViewState, etc.

Deserialization of untrusted data (CWE-502), is when the application deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently verifying that the resulting data will be valid, letting the attacker to control the state or the flow of the execution.

Java deserialization issues have been known for years. However, interest in the issue intensified greatly in 2015, when classes that could be abused to achieve remote code execution were found in a popular library (Apache Commons Collection). These classes were used in zero-days affecting IBM WebSphere, Oracle WebLogic and many other products.

An attacker just needs to identify a piece of software that has both a vulnerable class on its path, and performs deserialization on untrusted data. Then all they need to do is send the payload into the deserializer, getting the command executed.

Developers put too much trust in Java Object Serialization. Some even de-serialize objects pre-authentication. When deserializing an Object in Java you typically cast it to an expected type, and therefore Java's strict type system will ensure you only get valid object trees. Unfortunately, by the time the type checking happens, platform code has already created and executed significant logic. So, before the final type is checked a lot of code is executed from the readObject() methods of various objects, all of which is out of the developer's control. By combining the readObject() methods of various classes which are available on the classpath of the vulnerable application an attacker can execute functions (including calling Runtime.exec() to execute local OS commands).

The vulnerability, also know as Mad Gadget

Mad Gadget is one of the most pernicious vulnerabilities we’ve seen. By merely existing on the Java classpath, seven “gadget” classes in Apache Commons Collections (versions 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.2.1, and 4.0) make object deserialization for the entire JVM process Turing complete with an exec function. Since many business applications use object deserialization to send messages across the network, it would be like hiring a bank teller who was trained to hand over all the money in the vault if asked to do so politely, and then entrusting that teller with the key. The only thing that would keep a bank safe in such a circumstance is that most people wouldn’t consider asking such a question.

Overview

com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind is a library which contains the general-purpose data-binding functionality and tree-model for Jackson Data Processor.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Deserialization of Untrusted Data due to an incomplete black list (incomplete fix for CVE-2017-7525). This is exploitable by sending maliciously crafted JSON input to the readValue method of the ObjectMapper, bypassing a blacklist that is ineffective if the Spring libraries are available in the classpath.
