How to Fix CVE-2022-38216

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

com.mapbox.mapboxsdk:mapbox-android-core fixed: 10.6.1 
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.mapbox.mapboxsdk</groupId>
    <artifactId>mapbox-android-core</artifactId>
    <version>10.6.1</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=com.mapbox.mapboxsdk

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2022-38216, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.mapbox.mapboxsdk

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Mapbox android core in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 10.6.1), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=com.mapbox.mapboxsdk 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-190: Integer Overflow or Wraparound, where the product performs a calculation that can produce an integer overflow or wraparound when the logic assumes that the resulting value will always be larger than the original value. this occurs when an integer value is incremented to a value that is too large to store in the associated representation. when this occurs, the value may become a very small or negative number. In Mapbox android core, 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

An integer overflow exists in Mapbox's closed source gl-native library prior to version 10.6.1, which is bundled with multiple Mapbox products including open source libraries. The overflow is caused by large image height and width values when creating a new Image and allows for out of bounds writes, potentially crashing the Mapbox process.
