Advisory Summary

CVE-2026-103831 is a HIGH security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.

How to Fix CVE-2026-103831

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-2026-103831, 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 CWE-502: Deserialization of Untrusted Data, where the product deserializes untrusted data without sufficiently ensuring that the resulting data will be valid. 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

CVE-2026-103831: Insecure deserialization vulnerability in the Psr16CacheAdapter component of the TrueLayer Magento 2 Plugin, due to the use of PHP's native unserialize() function without restrictions on the classes allowed when retrieving data stored in the cache. An attacker who already has the ability to write manipulated data to the cache backend used by Magento—such as Redis or Memcached—could inject specially crafted PHP objects and trigger their deserialization, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution via gadget strings available in the application environment. Exploitation therefore requires a prerequisite condition that allows writing to the cache infrastructure, either through access to the local file system or to a cache infrastructure accessible from the Magento environment.
