Advisory Summary

CVE-2024-12399 is a MODERATE (CVSS 7.1) security vulnerability vulnerability (CWE-924: Improper Enforcement of Message Integrity During Transmission in a Communication Channel) affecting Software libraries in the Maven ecosystem. The weakness occurs when the product establishes a communication channel with an endpoint and receives a message from that endpoint, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the message was not modified during transmission.. Remediation is available in the latest vendor maintenance releases.

How to Fix CVE-2024-12399

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-2024-12399, 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-924: Improper Enforcement of Message Integrity During Transmission in a Communication Channel, where the product establishes a communication channel with an endpoint and receives a message from that endpoint, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the message was not modified during transmission. 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

CWE-924: Improper Enforcement of Message Integrity During Transmission in a Communication Channel vulnerability exists that could cause partial loss of confidentiality, loss of integrity and availability of the HMI when attacker performs man in the middle attack by intercepting the communication.
