How to Fix CVE-2023-25822
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Service api 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.epam.reportportal</groupId>
<artifactId>service-api</artifactId>
<version>5.10.0</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.epam.reportportalHow to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2023-25822, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:
mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.epam.reportportalAnalyze the terminal output to locate any version of Service api in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 5.10.0), your application is affected.
Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.epam.reportportal 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-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling, where the product allocates a reusable resource or group of resources on behalf of an actor without imposing any intended restrictions on the size or number of resources that can be allocated. In Service api, 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.
