Security Impact
CVSS: 7.1
The security impact metrics below are parsed directly from the CVSS v3.1 vector string (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:L).
How to Fix CVE-2022-41828
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Redshift jdbc42 dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.amazon.redshift</groupId>
<artifactId>redshift-jdbc42</artifactId>
<version>2.1.0.8</version>
</dependency>Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.amazon.redshiftHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2022-41828, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.amazon.redshiftAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Redshift jdbc42 in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.1.0.8), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.amazon.redshift 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.

"details" : "### Impact\n\nA potential remote command execution issue exists within `redshift-jdbc42` versions 2.1.0.7 and below. When plugins are used with the driver, it instantiates plugin instances based on Java class names provided via the `sslhostnameverifier`, `socketFactory`, `sslfactory`, and `sslpasswordcallback` connection properties. In affected versions, the driver does not verify if a plugin class implements the expected interface before instantiatiaton. This can lead to loading of arbitrary Java classes, which a knowledgeable attacker with control over the JDBC URL can use to achieve remote code execution.\n\n### Patches\n\nThis issue is patched within `redshift-jdbc-42` 2.1.0.8 and above.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nWe advise customers using plugins to upgrade to `redshift-jdbc42` version 2.1.0.8 or above. There are no known workarounds for this issue.\n\n### For more information\n\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please contact AWS Security at [aws-security@amazon.com](mailto:aws-security@amazon.com).\n",
