How to Fix CVE-2007-4011

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2007-4011, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under General Security Weakness. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Cisco 4100 and 4400, Airespace 4000, and Catalyst 6500 and 3750 Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) software before 3.2 20070727, 4.0 before 20070727, and 4.1 before 4.1.180.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (traffic amplification or ARP storm) via a crafted unicast ARP request that (1) has a destination MAC address unknown to the Layer-2 infrastructure, aka CSCsj69233; or (2) occurs during Layer-3 roaming across IP subnets, aka CSCsj70841.
