How to Fix CVE-2023-31062

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

org.apache.inlong:manager-pojo fixed: 1.7.0
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.inlong</groupId>
    <artifactId>manager-pojo</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.0</version>
</dependency>
org.apache.inlong:manager-dao fixed: 1.7.0
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.inlong</groupId>
    <artifactId>manager-dao</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.0</version>
</dependency>
org.apache.inlong:manager-service fixed: 1.7.0
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.inlong</groupId>
    <artifactId>manager-service</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.0</version>
</dependency>
org.apache.inlong:manager-web fixed: 1.7.0
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.inlong</groupId>
    <artifactId>manager-web</artifactId>
    <version>1.7.0</version>
</dependency>
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 -Dincludes=org.apache.inlong

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2023-31062, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.inlong

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Manager pojo in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.7.0), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.apache.inlong 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 CWE-269: Improper Privilege Management, where the product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor. In Manager pojo, 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

Improper Privilege Management Vulnerabilities in Apache Software Foundation Apache InLong.This issue affects Apache InLong: from 1.2.0 through 1.6.0.  When the attacker has access to a valid (but unprivileged) account, the exploit can be executed using Burp Suite by sending a login request and following it with a subsequent HTTP request using the returned cookie. Users are advised to upgrade to Apache InLong's 1.7.0 or cherry-pick https://github.com/apache/inlong/pull/7836 to solve it.
